Botanica International Mares Handicap Hurdle

Bumper winner but has lost her way since a maiden hurdle 5th at Kilbeggan last August and failed to complete on last two runs, including back over timber last week; reliant on first-time cheekpieces sparking a revival.

Has got her act together with two course wins this year on contrasting ground; up a total of 15lb for those wins (winning margin roughly 1l in both) and there has to be a chance the handicapper has caught up now (up 8lb for latest win) but certainly capable of another good run.

Didn't show much under rules in Britain but got off the mark with a point win in November; will probably find this test sharp and may need the run after a five-month break.

Much improved this season, coming on from her reappearance to finish runner-up in a Gowran handicap hurdle and even better effort when beaten half a length at Sligo; off six months but will be a major player if fit.

Course winner; below form in two recent handicap hurdles but return to this venue may spark a revival and her mark is on the way back down; not ruled out.
