Got off the mark when keeping on well to account for Rock On Lilly at Cork last month. Although raised 7lb for that success she should again be a major player.

Has been running well in handicap hurdles this term and produced best effort to date when chasing home Jefferson Davis over course and distance last month. A reproduction would give her a major chance.

Forecasts

Sunset Sadie (11/4), Killahara Castle (7/2), Off The Hoof (7/1), Kiln Rock (9/1), Time Is Time (12/1), All In The Head (14/1), Analyse That (14/1), Intercounty Star (16/1), Ciankyle (16/1), Northern Emperor (16/1), Get It Back (20/1), Glendaars Best (20/1), Righty Rue (25/1), Drumsheil (25/1), River Patrole (25/1)

Verdict

This appears to rest between SUNSET SADIE, Killahara Castle and Off The Hoof, with preference to the first named. She showed a degree of resolution to account for Rock On Lilly at Cork last month and this looks a fine opportunity to follow up. A victory by that runner-up will further boost her chances . Killahara Castle has been running well without getting his head in front and should give the selection most to do. Off The Hoof has the scope to improve and come out best of the rest.
  1. Sunset Sadie
  2. Killahara Castle
  3. Off The Hoof
