Made a winning stable and hurdling debut when victorious over an extended 1m7f at Southwell (good) last month. Penalised for that victory and is a leading player once more.
Improved on previous efforts when finishing third in a novice hurdle at Worcester (2m, good) a month ago. Hails from a top yard who come into this contest with a 45% strike-rate (5/11) in the last two weeks.
Registered her first hurdles victory when winning by 8L over 2m1f at Cartmel (good) at the end of June. Carries a penalty for that victory and is a notable runner in this contest.
Promising fourth on hurdles debut at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good) in June. Well beaten there subsequently however and others hold stronger claims.

SEE THE SEA built on some promising efforts when recording a first hurdles victory last time out and she can follow that up with a success in this six runner novice contest. Illustrissime made the perfect start to his hurdles career when winning last time out and he can take second spot ahead of Marcel Debruxelles who represents a yard who have been in good form in recent weeks.
