Made it 2 wins from 4 starts for this yard when narrowly outpointing Giulietta at Warwick (19f, heavy) with cheekpieces refitted last month. 6 lb rise not the end of the world but it's worth noting that she was well held both starts following a successful reappearance last season.
|
Related to some useful performers in these silks and duly improved on her handicap debut when just touched off by Annie Day at Warwick. Appeals as the type to progress further and it would be no surprise were she to turn the tables on that rival here.
|
Hit the target twice, in this sphere and over fences, at Ffos Las last season. Reappearance third in a handicap chase back here in October was encouraging but she has misfired both subsequent starts. Now tried in cheekpieces.
|
Fair dual-purpose performer on her day, but her sole success in this sphere was gained back in March 2021 and she was well held on return (fit from the Flat) at Taunton last month.
|
Has made a positive start for in-form yard this season, off the mark in a 6-runner Leicester handicap (15.5f, heavy) last time. 5 lb rise for the narrow success demands more but she doesn't have many miles on the clock and may be capable of better still.
|
Lightly-raced maiden hurdler who resumed from 9 months off with a respectable fourth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Sedgefield (21.2f, soft). Eased 1 lb and she's not discounted with Brian Hughes booked.
|
On a good mark judged on form from a couple of seasons back and was sent off a well-backed favourite on return/debut for new yard at Chepstow. However, she was pulled up there and hopes pinned on subsequent wind op and the addition of a tongue strap working the oracle.
|
Just one effort of note on the level in Ireland (0-6 in that sphere) and she hasn't cut much ice in 3 starts over hurdles so far. Improvement needed now upped in trip/blinkered on handicap debut in this sphere.
|
Little form in a bumper/over hurdles to date and she needs to find improvement from somewhere.

Forecasts
Passing Kate (3/1), Giulietta (3/1), Harkangel (6/1), Arctic Footprint (13/2), Annie Day (15/2), Pageant Material (9/1), Lemon Ice (11/1), Call Me Sainte (12/1), Triple Nickle (100/1)
The one who appeals most is GIULIETTA, who was just touched off by the re-opposing Annie Day at Warwick and, armed with plenty of scope for improvement, she is confidently expected to reverse the placings with Ben Case's mare this time. Passing Kate may well build on her Leicester breakthrough success and is feared most ahead of Harkangel.
