In depth

Verdict

A LITTLE SWIFTER landed a maiden hurdle at Clonmel in October and showed that her turn wasn't far off for new connections with a fair effort in a novice hurdle at Leicester last month. This is a poor contest and she should have too many guns for Lulu's Gift, who produced a couple of reasonable efforts in bumpers before a poor run on her hurdling debut at Huntingdon. Himayna is very moderate and needs further though she was in good form when last seen in August and can make her presence felt if fit enough.The remaining pair have shown nothing so far.
