Zoe Davison Memorial Handicap Hurdle

Won on the Flat in October and returned to hurdling with two good-ground wins last month, the latter over C&D; in prime form and not yet fully exposed over jumps but today's race is much more competitive.

Career-best form when ridden-out winner at Stratford (2m, good) in October, her third hurdle success; still unexposed over this sort of trip but didn't really fire here last month and has become unreliable.

Promising third on hurdling debut at Market Rasen (2m2f, good) in June but flopped over 2m5f in final run for Ben Pauling; changed hands for £9,000 in August and weakened quickly when pulled up over C&D two weeks ago; makes handicap debut with a bit to prove.

13l second to Montemares (who looked a useful prospect winning next time) at Hereford last month, with that improved form owing more to experience than the step up to 2m4f; more needed again granted a tough opening mark.

Took a notable step forward when narrowly landing a Warwick juvenile hurdle (2m, good to soft) last December, responding well to positive tactics and making virtually all; opening mark looks workable if he can resume his progress back from an absence.
