Dual winner in juvenile hurdles last season, including a listed event at Doncaster. Shaped as if she'd come on for the run when mid-field on handicap debut at Ascot in November, but fared little better at Newbury 8 weeks later and has been off again since.
|
Won 4 on the bounce for this yard in spring 2022 but not at the same level for Andrew Martin last year. However, her mark has dropped as a result and, after 8 months off, she shaped as if better for the run when mid-field at Newbury last time. Not discounted.
|
Dual bumper winner and has made a bright start to her hurdling career, following up her Exeter success with a comfortable victory in a Ludlow novice. Leading contender with the potential of more still to offer as she makes her handicap debut.
|
Fair form when placed twice in bumpers and has at least matched that level in this sphere, getting off the mark at the third attempt in a Hereford maiden in February. Scored easily last time and she may do better still as she goes handicapping.
|
Won junior events at Wetherby and Hereford last term. However, below that level when a beaten favourite in handicaps on her first 2 starts this season and finished well held in listed company at Taunton on her latest outing. Others more persuasive.
|
Three handicap hurdle wins this season, including back-to-back successes at Taunton and Market Rasen in November. Has continued in decent heart since, runner-up at Fakenham when last seen the following month (has had a wind op subsequently). Can give another good account.

Forecasts
Finest View (5/2), Mighty Moth (10/3), Greyval (4/1), Easy Peasy (5/1), Obsessedwithyou (6/1), Lady Gwen (10/1)
EASY PEASY has looked a nice prospect when winning her first 2 starts over hurdles, defying a penalty with a bit in hand at Ludlow 19 days ago, and she can add to her tally with further progress to come on her handicap debut. Mighty Moth opened her hurdles account in good style last time and is feared most, ahead of Finest View.
