Has shown little in a brace of bumpers so hard to enthuse over on this switch to hurdling.

£28,000 5-y-o, Sholokhov mare. Sister to fair hurdler/useful chaser Sholokjack, and half-sister to 3 winners, including useful chaser Another Stowaway. Off mark in Irish points at third attempt (Apr 2025). Wears tongue strap for Rules debut having already undergone a breathing operation.
Timeform
Promising third on Ascot bumper debut in February 2024 but well held at Cheltenham 2 months later. First run since (off 21 months) when fifth of 9 in novice at Fontwell on hurdles bow 24 days ago and likely to come on for that.

Timeform
Point winner who showed some in a couple of bumpers and was probably set to show modest form when falling heavily 2 out on C&D hurdling debut in December.

Forecasts

Diamond Du Berlais (8/13), Afancy Getaway (6/1), No Flies On Her (8/1), Jurassic Pet (10/1), Borna Gem (16/1), Jax Belle (16/1), Catwalk Girl (16/1), Khutulun Khan (16/1), Warrioress (50/1), Feeling Frisky (66/1), Porridge (250/1), Wishful Wings (250/1)

Verdict

DIAMOND DU BERLAIS stands out a mile on her French form so should prove very hard to beat on first outing for Willie Mullins. Khutulun Khan and No Flies On Her can battle it out for minor honours.
