Has been running well over hurdles this term; potentially well-handicapped back chasing

Front-running mare's sequence ended on softer ground of late; won't want appreciable rain

Effectively brought down latest but still needs to improve on previous form to figure
9	A Nod To Getaway b J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:Paul O'Flynn	J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:Paul O'Flynn	146	tb	4-1457	87	106	49	16d	—	—	-1	13.3	13/2 13%
Drop back in trip should suit but needs to improve plenty
2	King Ferdinand b J:Mr Alan O'Sullivan(7) T:Eugene M O'Sullivan	J:Mr Alan O'Sullivan(7) T:Eugene M O'Sullivan	168	t	112-06	109	105	-	17d	—	—	+7	17.6	7/1 13%
Better for recent comeback hurdle runs and longer trip but doesn't want it soft
8	Lucky Policy b J:Sam Ewing T:Paul W Flynn	J:Sam Ewing T:Paul W Flynn	150	tp	700F52	91	111	98	15d	—	—	+7	17.6	7/1 13%

Last win came three years ago and seems best watched here on returning from year's absence
