Makes stable/seasonal debut with yard in fine form; interesting, especially if well backed

C&D win in November; bang there when jinking/unseating at Aintree latest; strong contender

Merely fifth on her two runs this autumn but there's a suspicion she's capable of better

Step back in right direction when third at Ayr latest; has a chance now back down in grade

Prolific last March/April but plenty to prove regarding stamina and current form

Won in February on last hurdle outing; fit from the Flat and could have a part to play

Going well in front when falling three out at Down Royal; may well make amends today
