Not seen since May, 2023 when unplaced in a handicap hurdle, a win before that at Compiegne on April 25th over 3600m in a handicap hurdle was a good effort. Lightly raced since 2022, and she is fragile and has a fitness concern

Ran well to be 22nd at Dieppe on July 15th, 2023 in a handicap hurdle when last racing. Will likely need this run and others make more appeal

Race Overview
JOSUBIE (7) has been racing over fences recently, and running well- she will have no issues with the switch back over hurdles and should be too smart for her rivals. HIGHBOURNE VELVET (9) shaped with promise on her only start when she was third at Nantes in November and could be the main threat. KIANNA (3) has her fitness to prove having not raced since May 2023. She can make the frame if ready to go. JABOROSA (1) has not raced since September 2023, if fit she is one to keep safe.
