Sprung 28/1 surprise in Uttoxeter maiden (heavy) in November and unlucky to bump into a progressive rival when second to Jamaicaine (winner again since) over this C&D a fortnight ago. Seemingly the one most likely to make a race of it with Princess Keri
|
In fine form since reverted to hurdles, landing handicaps at Lingfield (2m) and Ludlow (21f) in November. The hat-trick was firmly in sight recently at Fakenham (2½m, soft) where she unseated rider shortly after the final flight and she'll prove very hard to beat off the same mark here.
|
Modest hurdler at best for Alan King and she hasn't fared much better in 2 starts since joining present yard. Hopes pinned on the addition of cheekpieces sparking improvement.
|
Scored on her handicap bow at Bangor (19.6f, heavy) last February but well below that level in handful of starts this term. Needs to bounce back with hood refitted.

Forecasts
Princess Keri (8/15), Gower Spirit (9/4), Chosen Bae (14/1), Ezmerellda (16/1)
PRINCESS KERI is a step ahead of the handicapper turned out again before being reassessed for her final-flight departure at Fakenham, where she had matters firmly under control when her claimer became unbalanced soon after the last and eventually exited the saddle. Gower Spirit is the clear pick for forecast purposes, given that Chosen Bae is out of form and Ezmerellda needs to raise her game significantly.
