Christian Williams Racing Supporting Childhood Cancer Mares' Handicap Hurdle

2-8 over hurdles; signed off in good form in the spring, making all at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good), but is 5lb higher now and may not enjoy such a favourable tactical scenario this time.

Low-mileage 5yo who looked sure to open account in Market Rasen maiden (2m, good) in April, only to edge left on the run-in and surrender the lead close home; had wind op last month; makes handicap debut here.

Went the wrong way after winning Exeter maiden (2m, good) on hurdling debut a year ago but, following a wind op, got career back on track when second at Warwick (2m5f, good) in May; drops back in trip here; contender if able to build on that latest effort.

French-bred 4yo; did not convince with her jumping when beaten favourite in junior hurdle in February but returned with quite promising second at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good to soft) last month and could have lots more improvement to come in handicaps.

Placed on first two hurdling starts, the latter over C&D (heavy) in January; managed only fifth of seven on subsequent handicap debut at Sandown (2m, good to soft) and ideally needs to learn to settle better but she'll appreciate this ease in grade.
