Break Mares' Handicap Hurdle

Successful over 2½m here last autumn and back on the up in cheekpieces in recent months, making all at Southwell and over C&D. A 4 lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold bid.

Made a winning handicap debut for David Pipe at Doncaster (3m, heavy) in February, proving well suited by the step up in trip. Has switched to Nick Scholfield ahead of this first outing for 3 months. Unexposed and makes obvious appeal under Sean Bowen.

Posted a good second of 8 over 2m here in December on her sole run for John and Rhys Flint but well held in 2½m Ffos Las handicap for new yard 22 days ago. Something to prove up in trip again.

Gained a third 21f Plumpton win in February but well beaten back there in recent months. Others are more persuasive.

Poor form over hurdles, including beaten a long way in both handicaps (remote third over 2m here latterly). However, she's back from a break with her yard in very good form so could fare a lot better now, particularly if backed. Also steps up significantly in trip.

Largely consistent sort (including a win at Exeter last October) but she was pulled up back from a break at Newton Abbot 3 weeks ago and can only be watched this time.
