Won a Class 4 hurdle over 2m at Hereford on October 13 on good to firm, giving her a recent success in today's grade. Her September third at Sedgefield came on good ground, although she was beaten 14 lengths and will need to reproduce her stronger Hereford form. Today's 2m3½f represents a rise of three and a half furlongs from her latest run, bringing stamina more firmly into play. She was pulled up over 2m4f at Sedgefield in November 2025, though that was on soft ground rather than today's good.

Followed her July hurdle win at Market Rasen with two close placings in this grade, most recently second at Chepstow on 9 October. She was beaten a length and a quarter there over 2m7½f on good to soft, and now drops four furlongs to 2m3½f. Her September third at Newton Abbot came over 2m1f on good ground, so she has shown useful form either side of today's distance. Jack Quinlan also brings extensive Huntingdon experience, having ridden 31 winners at the course.

Finished fifth over hurdles at Market Rasen on April 14, beaten 16 lengths over 2m½f on good ground, leaving her needing a stronger performance. She returns after 201 days away and moves up three furlongs to 2m3½f, a different stamina test from that April assignment. Stan Sheppard's 12 winners from 60 rides at Huntingdon bring useful course experience to the saddle and offer a positive for her return. Sir Percy's offspring have won hurdles on good ground, providing some pedigree encouragement for today's conditions.

Third in bumpers on good ground at Hereford in March and Sedgefield on 7 October, she has shown enough to offer some encouragement for hurdles. Her latest placing came over 2m1f, beaten nine and a half lengths, so this longer test at 2m3½f asks her to build on that form. Sibling Game On is a hurdle winner, offering further encouragement for her prospects over obstacles. Tom Bellamy's 32 Huntingdon winners provide useful course experience in the saddle.
