Promise in bumpers and winning start over hurdles on return at Exeter (16.7f maiden) in October. However, hasn't quite been right since, seemed amiss when folding quickly at Carlisle in March. Now steps up in trip following wind surgery and remains to be seen if she can get back on track.

Placed twice in ordinary maiden hurdles in the autumn but improved on handicap debut at Stratford (18.7f) last time, nearly making-all in first time cheekpieces, only beaten by an in-form one. Longer trip could well prompt further improvement. Claims if headgear continues to have positive effect.

Bumper winner recorded her second hurdles victory (first in a handicap) when staying on well to bag an 8-runner event at Hereford (19.7f) 40 days ago. That was a career best and it would be no surprise to see her build on that back up in trip.

Fairly consistent in handicaps at the back end of last year but shaped as though amiss returning from 4 months off when stopping quickly at Southwell last month (has had breathing operations). Bit to prove now.

Some promise in novices but ran no sort of race at Taunton on final qualifying run and again ran poorly 7 weeks on when disappointing on handicap debut at Hereford. Will need to bounce back.

Confirmed promise of her final qualifying run when runner-up on handicap debut at Warwick (19f) last month, typically travelled well. Lightly-raced and unexposed over this longer trip. Plenty to like about her chances.

Fair staying handicapper on the Flat but yet to replicate that over hurdles, made mistakes when a well held third of 5 in an Exeter mares maiden (16.7f) 43 days ago. Could have more to offer over the longer trip on handicap debut but will need to improve her jumping.

Fair handicap hurdler for Robert Walford back in 2022 and showed some ability remains when third in a 19.7f Hereford handicap on stable debut, shaping as though she'd benefit from this longer trip. May prove well handicapped if she can build on that.

Modest maiden on Flat and achieved little in a couple of hurdles starts. Markedly up in trip for handicap debut. Improvement needed.

Forecasts

Granny Hawkins (2/1), Leave Her To Me (4/1), Roaring Home (5/1), Miss Kassiopi (5/1), Electric Annie (17/2), Kissininthebackrow (9/1), Faerie Cutlass (12/1), Briery Bee (40/1), Jackie Diamond (66/1)

Verdict

A fair handicap hurdler at her best, ELECTRIC ANNIE showed enough ability remains when faced with an inadequate test on stable debut last month. She's entitled to come on for that run and could prove well handicapped stepping back up in trip. Miss Kassiopi posted her best effort to date when runner-up in first-time headgear and is feared, especially if she gets an easy lead. Strong-travelling Granny Hawkins is unexposed over this longer distance and may well have more to offer.
