Verdict

The fact NORTHERN AIR made her Rules debut in a Newbury bumper suggests her connections must hold her in quite high regard and, although she ran to only a modest level, a lot better can be expected on this switch to hurdling. Standard setter Navajo Indy is an obvious threat, while The Northernlights makes most appeal of the remainder.
