Upped her game when resuming winning ways at Stratford (16.3f) in May and found further improvement when following up in 5-runner handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good to soft, 10/11) 32 days ago by 3¾ lengths from Bluebella. 6 lb higher now but looks sure to go well again.

Verdict
Won this contest, off 2 lb higher, last term and backed that up with good third at Uttoxeter next time. Below par the last twice but has had a wind operation since and is worth monitoring on first start for 9 months.

Placed once from 3 starts in bumpers and runner-up in a Wincanton novice (21.4f) on hurdling debut in November. However, hasn't gone on from that effort since, failing to complete at Newton Abbot latest.

Offered more than previously in this sphere when fourth of 8 in novice at Southwell (15.8f, good) 48 days ago, not knocked about. Blinkers applied for handicap hurdle debut and is worth a second look in the market.

Verdict
C&D winner who was having just her second start for new connections when creditable 3¾ lengths second of 5 to Auntie Maggie in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good to soft) 32 days ago, best work finish. Tongue strap/cheekpieces on first time. Likely player.

Has raised her game since returning from a winter break last month, finishing third at Ludlow before chasing home an easy winner at Ffos Las (15.8f) in May. More needed if she's to get the job done here, but time is still very much on her side.
