Having finished well held in a bumper, showed much more fitted with a tongue tie over hurdles during the winter, finishing third each time. Should be on the premises again up in trip.
|
From a leading stable but she looked limited in bumpers. Has had a breathing op ahead of this hurdles debut.
|
Out of a bumper winner but no impact herself both outings in that sphere.
|
Went the wrong way in bumpers and now up in trip for hurdles debut.
|
Related to a bumper winner but hard to enthuse over her performances in that sphere.
|
Runner-up in a bumper for Olly Murphy and shaped with encouragement sent hurdling for new yard when fourth of 10 in a 2m novice (2/1) at Kempton (16f, soft) in November. Likely to improve, particularly now upped in trip.
|
Fifth foal, dam ran twice on Flat. Newcomer for yard in good form.
|
Fair bumper winner who ran to a similar level in finding only one too good first 2 starts over hurdles in November. Upped to 21.4f and took a big backward step at Wincanton last time. Tongue tie reached for.
|
First foal, dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdle winner/very smart chaser (2m-2½m winner) Kadarann and useful hurdler (stayed 3m) Kadara.
|
€12,000 3-y-o, fourth foal, closely related to modest hurdler Folks Like Us (21f winner, by Sans Frontieres), stays 3m: dam unraced sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 2¼m) Luddsdenene. Placed on second of 2 starts in Irish points (Feb 4).
|
Fair bumper winner who offered mild encouragement when runner-up in a novice at Exeter on hurdling debut in October. Has failed to build on that in 3 subsequent starts, including switched to a handicap in headgear in January.
|
Bits and pieces of form for Graeme McPherson but that was back in 2021.
|
Placed on the last of 3 starts in points back in 2022. Promising return to action when second over 2m here a fortnight ago and she's open to progress.
|
Just poor form in a brace of bumpers and easily passed over on hurdle debut.
|
€10,000 3-y-o, £32,000 4-y-o, Elusive Pimpernel filly. Dam ran once on Flat, half-sister to smart hurdler (stayed 3m) Limini. Beat only other finisher on sole outing in points a year ago. Sent off a huge price but promising hurdles debut at Stratford in November.
|
Mid-field in a couple of bumpers 12 months ago and mildly progressive over hurdles, third of 6 on handicap debut at Hereford 12 days ago. That just about the best form on offer.

Forecasts
Spring Gale (5/2), She's My Shadow (10/3), Goodtimecrew (9/2), Floating Line (5/1), Blue Moon Serenade (15/2), Newmill Getaway (9/1), Smugglers Haven (18/1), Gentoo (33/1), Morning Fortune (100/1), Phil Healy (100/1), Sister Agatha (100/1), Blue The Money (100/1), Ellie's Warrior (150/1), Dropitlikeitshot (150/1), Kadarra (150/1), Demelza Carne (200/1)
FLOATING LINE's fourth-place finish on hurdles debut turned out to be pretty strong form and sure to build on that tackling this trip, she looks the way to go. Spring Gale is a solid opponent, with She's My Shadow another to consider.
- Spring Gale5/2
