Visit racingtv.com Mares' Handicap Hurdle

Lightly-raced mare who built on reappearance effort when winning 9-runner handicap hurdle at Ludlow (15.8f, soft) 33 days ago. 5 lb higher now but remains with potential, particularly over this longer trip.

Prolific since joining James Owen, bagging a seventh win in a 2m claiming hurdle at Huntingdon in November. Below form more recently, though, and makes limited appeal.

Progressive in handicaps this season, winning at Ffos Las and Southwell and arrives on back of creditable second of 5 in novice hurdle at Ayr (20.4f, heavy) 35 days ago. Others look better treated, however.

Lightly-raced point winner who landed the odds in Lingfield novice hurdle this time last year before advancing her form when runner-up on her handicap bow at Uttoxeter (19.9f) the following month. Clearly amiss on return (had wind operation since) and must be respected here.

Found improvement when scoring at Newcastle in December and upped her game further when landing 8-runner handicap hurdle at Musselburgh (23.8f, good to soft) 47 days ago, kept up to work. 9 lb higher now but not taken lightly.

Not scored for some time but took a step back in right direction when fourth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Plumpton (20.5f, soft) 22 days ago and figures off a handy mark.

Returned with a good Market Rasen second but hasn't really built on that since, well held second at Fakenham (20f, soft) latest. Others preferred.

Won both her starts last term and took her unbeaten record to three when making a winning return in 8-runner novice hurdle (7/4) at Doncaster (19.4f, soft) 80 days ago, driven out. Sent handicapping now and likely has more to offer.

Placed twice from 3 starts in bumpers and shaped encouragingly when second in mares' novice at Warwick on hurdling debut/return. Below that level at Ludlow since, though, and needs improvement to play a part on handicap debut.

Irish bumper winner who bagged maiden/novice hurdles at Warwick and Cartmel in May. Largely disappointed since, however, including here over Christmas. Hard to fancy.

Made a successful start to her career in a bumper last summer and off the mark at fourth attempt in this sphere when winning 5-runner novice hurdle (11/4) at Sedgefield (19.8f, soft) 23 days ago, driven out. Remains open to improvement on handicap bow.

Novice winner over 2m and 2½m last summer. Not really threatened in handicaps since but has dropped down the weights and this step back up in trip may well suit.
