Made it third time lucky over hurdles when landing a mares' maiden at Stratford (16.3f, good) on her latest start in March. That form is nothing to get excited about, but she could have more to offer now upped in trip for this handicap debut.

Remains winless over hurdles (0-14), but she was bang there when departing at the second-last back from a break here (19.8f, good to firm) in September. One to consider off an unchanged mark.

Successful at Ludlow in 2024/25, but she hasn't made much of an impact in half-a-dozen starts this year.

Modest winning hurdler for Tim Vaughan last September. Changed yards for just £1,000 and while she bettered previous efforts for this yard when seventh of 11 at Kelso last time, others make more appeal all the same.

Well held in 3 bumpers but she did at least make more impact than previously over hurdles stepped up in trip when fourth of 10 on handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2½m, good) in September. Still, that form doesn't amount to much and she again looks vulnerable for win purposes.

Winless following 13 attempts on the Flat and 0-4 in this sphere, but she wasn't disgraced when fifth of 10 on handicap debut over hurdles at Perth (3m, good to soft) in September and was recently runner-up on the level at Catterick. Place possibilities.

Shaped like a stayer in 3 bumpers and remote second of 4 in novice hurdle at Sedgefield (19.8f, good) on hurdles bow last November. However, no improvement in 4 subsequent appearances in this sphere and she's opposable on debut for new yard following 8 months off.

Poor novice hurdler who failed to beat a rival home in a 10-runner Newcastle handicap when last seen in March. Readily passed over.

Well beaten in an AW Flat maiden for the Crisford stable and record over hurdles is 0-8. On the upside, she has made the frame all 3 starts since switched to handicaps at up to 19.7f and this step up in trip looks a good move.

Dead-heated on sole start in Irish points and produced her first piece of worthwhile form under Rules when fourth of 10, despite racing from 21 lb out of the weights, in a Newcastle handicap (20.3f, good) in March. Each-way chance if able to build on that back from an 8-month break.

Forecasts

Laddie Cooper Mia (11/5), Path Of Stars (5/1), Vanilla Dancer (5/1), Faerie Cutlass (8/1), Somebodycomegether (17/2), Keep On Cobbling (11/1), Windsor Wife (11/1), Brionywells (12/1), State Of Honor (20/1), Fancy Nancy Pants (22/1)

Verdict

Bumper winner VANILLA DANCER has yet to deliver in this sphere, but she probably would've finished close had she stayed on all fours here last time (very much in contention when departing 2 out on that occasion). The 6-y-o gets the nod ahead of the unexposed Keep On Cobbling and Path of Stars, who promises to be suited by this step up in trip.
