Useful chaser. Latest win in chase at Limerick in December 2023. Creditable 1½ lengths second of 6 to Harmonya Maker in Gr 2 chase at Thurles (20.2f, heavy, 8/11). Off 11 months. Should improve but looks yard second string here.

Smart mare who had an excellent second season over fences, winning 3 times, notably the Grade 2 Mares' Chase at the Cheltenham Festival. Disappointed on return in Betfair Chase but expected to bounce back here.

Useful chaser. Back from 6 months off when disappointing fourth of 7 in novice chase at Clonmel (20.8f, good to soft) 55 days ago, finding less than looked likely. Must enter calculations, though.

Forecasts

Allegorie De Vassy (5/4), Limerick Lace (2/1), Riviere D'etel (4/1), Hauturiere (9/1), Malina Girl (18/1)

Verdict

LIMERICK LACE may have been undone by the testing conditions on her return in the Betfair Chase and can bounce back here. Allegorie de Vassy also arrives on the back of a disappointing effort but still rates the chief threat.
