A mares maiden containing plenty of deadwood and the vote goes to ENOLA, who was a listed winner on the Flat in France and showed aptitude for hurdling before a lack of a recent outing told after 15 months off at Cork in November. Willie Mullins also saddles Implicit and she's a threat provided all is well after her Limerick disappointment a fortnight ago, with Thegingrin and Ah Fuhgeddaboudit another couple fancied to feature.
