10/1
This eminently less demanding than her two starts over fences to date and has potential to improve.

33/1
Improved effort on third start over fences at Clonmel a month ago, could be more to come here.

Monbeg Rose10
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-7| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott
11/2
Has been busy since joining this trainer and recent Limerick effort over fences leaves her ready to run well here.

Age: 5|  Weight: 11-1| J: B J Geraghty| T: J P O'Brien
4/6
Let favourite backers down when falling on chase debut in November, second in a handicap hurdle at Leopardstown since and sure to be popular here.

Forecasts

Slowmotion (4/6), Monbeg Rose (11/2), Goulane Davina (13/2), Elusive Ivy (10/1), A Hardy Nailer (10/1), Floral Fantasy (14/1), Dorkas (25/1), Blazing West (33/1)

Verdict

Monbeg Rose is possibly the pick on chase form but a second chance is given to SLOWMOTION who was an early casualty when well-backed at Wexford in November. She's run well over hurdles since and should make amends now. Dorkas is an interesting contender on first start for new trainer while Floral Fantasy is entitled to be competitive if taking to this jumping test, a comment that also applies to Goulane Davina. 1. Slowmotion 2. Monbeg Rose 3. Dorkas
