Verdict

The market can reveal plenty but LUCID DREAMS has shown enough when second on her hurdling bow and when a recent bumper third here to suggest she can open her account. Kilbeggan-third Men of Dreams and hurdling-newcomer Emeric could emerge as the chief threats to the selection in a very open contest.

  1. LUCID DREAMS (IRE)
  2. MEN OF DREAMS (IRE)
  3. EMERIC (IRE)
