Won this in 2024; needs to better recent form but may be aided by new cheekpieces

Second off her reduced mark at Ludlow in February but younger mares appeal more here
15	Could Be Trouble Bay J:Brian Hughes T:Donald McCain	J:Brian Hughes T:Donald McCain	146	tv	814391	112	135	130	29d	—	—	+27	29.8	7.00/1	28/1 3%
Made all in new headgear in March but 4lb rise may be enough to leave this 10yo vulnerable

Yet to hit peak peak since returning from a break, and latest run was very disappointing
19	Gilbertina Bay J:Charlie Todd T:Nick Kent	J:Charlie Todd T:Nick Kent	143	—	-82633	109	133	121	34d	—	0W/1P 1 run	+19	22.1	10.00/1	40/1 2%
