15/2

£15,000 3-y-o, Milan mare. Half-sister to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser Simply The Betts and useful hurdler Crimson Ark. Hood on. One to note on debut in very winnable contest.

5/1

No show in a couple of bumpers but fair bit to like about her 2 efforts over hurdles, running on late in C&D novice a fortnight ago. Has races in her.
