7/2
14/1, respectable 13¾ lengths third of 6 to Shecouldbeanything in Like A Butterfly Novices' Chase at Tipperary (20.1f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Switch to handicaps in her favour and she's worth considering with that under her belt.

10/3
Fairly useful hurdler who displayed similar form when making a winning chase debut at Tipperary (19.5f) in July. Similar form when fourth in Grade 3 company next time but absent since finishing down the field in novice company at Killarney (23.3f) in August. Makes handicap chase debut.

15/2
Useful hurdler who hasn't threatened in a trio of maiden contests over fences but noted doing some good late work on qualifying run at Ballinrobe (23.3f) 44 days ago. Set to prove a different proposition now handicapping in this sphere. One to note.

12/1
Fourteenth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (20.2f, good to soft, 14/1) 23 days ago, possibly in need of the run after 7 months off. Switches from hurdles to chase and better showing distinctly possible.

Forecasts

Popova (10/3), Music Of Tara (7/2), Watch The Weather (4/1), Walnut Beach (4/1), Ballybawn Belter (15/2), Mr Saxobeat (9/1), Happy Dreams (12/1), Aarons Day (33/1)

Verdict

MUSIC OF TARA is entitled to be sharper for her first start for 5 months in Grade 3 company at Tipperary 3 weeks ago and, with the switch to handicaps a positive, she looks to hold good claims for her in-form yard. Walnut Beach arrives in good form and is feared, with Ballybawn Belter another to keep a close eye on making her respective handicap debut in this sphere.
