Mini Golf At High Gosforth Park Mares' Handicap Hurdle

Justified support, returned to hurdling for new yard, when winning 8-runner handicap at Carlisle (19.3f, soft) 44 days ago, finding extra. 7 lb higher now but ought to go well again.

Winning pointer but has failed to build on her hurdling debut Hexham second in 2 subsequent outings, including on first start for new connections at Catterick in November. Goes handicapping with something to prove.

Fairly useful bumper winner who scored at Wetherby last winter. Has made an encouraging return this season, suited by step back up in trip when chasing home a thriving winner back at same course (19.7f) last time. That form is strong for the grade and she remains one to be interested in.

Disappointed at Hereford (16.2f) latest but had offered to something to work on in a couple of starts prior to that and the return to this longer trip is very much in her favour on handicap debut. Shortlisted.

Runner-up on first of her 2 starts in bumpers and stepped up on what was a pretty low-key hurdles debut when third in mares' maiden at Wetherby (19.7f) in March. Not offered much in either start this term, though.

A fair winner in 2023 over C&D but has failed to complete in a couple of starts since returning from a lengthy absence this term. Tongue strap on for first time. Had wind operation.

Multiple winner over timber but her last success came back in 2024. Handicapper has relented at least but she may find this test on the sharp side.
