Verdict

SHE IS FOR ME BOYS beat a fairly useful sort to win on chase debut and has undergone a breathing operation following a weak finish at Cheltenham last time. She sets the form standard and can resume winning ways if handling softer conditions than previously faced. Celestial Fashion shaped as if still in good form when fading late over 3m at Ayr, she's a danger back down in distance, while Taxus Baccata has joined a capable yard and is worth noting for support.

She Is For Me Boys silk

Successful sole start in Points and progressive over hurdles. Impressive winning start over fences at Kempton (20.5f, good to soft) in November (third a next-time-out winner) but folded in better race at Cheltenham latest. Had a wind op since and she's worth another chance with sights lowered.

Celestial Fashion silk

Likeable type who finished runner-up twice over C&D and looked better than ever when making a winning return at Carlisle (2½m) in November. Shaped as if still in good form when fourth at Ayr latest, only fading late on first try over 3m. Sure to be in the mix back down in trip.

Taxus Baccata (Ire) silk

Point/bumper winner who made a winning chase debut at Plumpton (19.7f) in March for Matt Crawley. Form has dipped but she's joined a capable new yard and no surprise to see her more competitive in first-time tongue following wind surgery.
