LAREENA showed distinct promise when runner-up in a juvenile claimer on her hurdles debut last spring, and is expected to leave that bare form behind now starting out for Willie Mullins. Nicaragua has solid recent form to her name, so appeals most for the forecast, although Is She Diesel is also respected starting out for Seamus Fahey.
