Heritage Portfolio Mares' Handicap Hurdle

Made it 3-4 under rules when winning at Ludlow (2m, good to soft) in January on second handicap start and good second at Market Rasen (2m4f, soft) subsequently; this progressive 7yo holds very solid claims.

Won three times last spring (2m4f/2m5f, good/good to soft); ran okay when fourth of seven over C&D (good to soft) in November when last seen (lost a shoe); each-way claims if fully tuned up after a break.

Tailed off at Market Rasen in November and same story at Catterick last month on her sole run since; however, she may have needed that latest outing and runs off the same mark as for her win at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) in September; yard's horses are running well and she's not discounted.

Up and down in novice hurdles and tailed off last time; however, she was a winner at 125-1 at Perth (2m, soft) in October and ran well in third at Carlisle (2m3f, good to soft) two starts ago; she might not be far away on this handicap debut if she's back on song.

Returned from a year off in maiden hurdle over C&D (good to soft) last month and ran best race yet, finishing second in a first-time hood (retained); open to improvement, especially with her jumping, and she could be a contender now going handicapping for her respected stable.
