Not the force of old but won in first-time cheekpieces at Catterick this month; respected

Looked laboured here last month but she's on good mark if back on song in new cheekpieces

Won this in 2025 and is back on a good mark but has become very unreliable

Below best this season but caught the eye with big forward move at Wincanton recently

Soundly beaten three times since winning two-finisher chase in December; others preferred
