The Queen of National Hunt Racing had an incredible unbeaten record which was stopped last time out in the Grade 1 Hatton's Grace Hurdle as she was beaten by Klassical Dream and favourite for this year's Stayers' Hurdle Teahupoo.
Dual Champion Hurdle winner, and three-time winner of this event so she is going for a fourth consecutive victory here. She comfortably accounted for Zanahiyr 12 months ago before retaining Cheltenham title and will be sharper now, but she will not have it all so easy due to State Man coming onto the scene.
It is up for debate whether she actually ran a decent race last time back in third, but that will be proven this weekend if she shows she is good enough to beat the younger horses such as the favourite and Vauban.
Unusual to see her at a backable price in the market so she cannot be ruled out.
If she goes and wins it would be absolutely brilliant for racing and would shake up the Champion Hurdle market for the festival in March.
