Having been sent off at just 11-4, she won by 5l when upped in trip on last Wednesday's handicap debut at Hereford (2m, good); this unexposed 4yo could be tough to beat under a 7lb penalty.

Held up in rear - smooth headway on outer omitted 4 out - weakened from 2 out(op 9/4)
Disappointing towards the end of last year but she's 1lb lower than when 1l second over C&D (good) last May and perhaps the first-time cheekpieces will give her a boost; no surprise if she goes well for in-form yard.

Just one win from her 19 hurdle starts but that came at Catterick (1m7f, soft) in February and she made a bad mistake when fourth at Carlisle (2m1f, soft) next time; she'll be fine now back up in trip and back on better ground, and could give a good account.

Good-ground novice hurdle winner who was runner-up in first-time blinkers in Huntingdon handicap (3m1f, good to soft) in November for Noel Williams; however, below par next time and has since changed hands; this inconsistent 7yo goes without headgear on stable debut; others are more compelling.

Well beaten when falling three out at Newcastle (2m4f, good to soft) early last month, following a break; she's not easy to fancy after that but she ran well when third here (2m2f, good) in September on her second handicap start, and this lightly raced 7yo is not written off.

Beaten 12l when fifth of nine at 11-1 on last month's handicap debut at Carlisle (2m1f, soft); improvement is needed but today's forecast better ground could be a positive and she's not ruled out each-way.

Disappointing on both runs this year and needs to turn things around; however, perhaps first-time cheekpieces will help and she won over C&D (good to soft) in November on her last visit here.

Won when the hood went back on at Newcastle (2m4f, heavy) in January and followed up at Southwell (2m4f, good to soft); disappointing at Carlisle (2m3f, soft) last time but she was missing the hood, which returns today along with a first-time tongue-tie; could have a part to play.

Makes handicap debut off basement mark, which provides her with a first realistic opportunity; watch the betting, but she's shown little at triple-figure odds across her three hurdle starts.
