7/1

Signs of improvement on last start at Downpatrick last month when 6½L adrift of Maple Lawn. Will need to find some more progress from somewhere to play a role here.

Robin De Carlow (8/13), Pocket Dial (9/2), Sunrise Lady (7/1), Presentingprincess (7/1), Lilly Mon May (25/1), Tourgar Pure Gold (25/1)

Held up in the early stages of a Ballinrobe bumper in May, ROBIN DE CARLOW soon put the race to bed inside the final furlong coming away in good style to win by 4L. The Willie Mullins-trained five-year-old by Robin Des Champs is sure to be well-prepped for her hurdling debut and can land the spoils in the opener from the game mare, Presentingprincess and Pocket Dial from the Jessica Harrington yard.
