MILOMYNIT can land the opener here following on from her promising third of 10 beaten 6½L in a Downpatrick 2m3f maiden hurdle earlier this month on her third start. Eamonn O'Connell's Bluegrass Princess may offer the stiffest opposition in what appears to be a weak renewal, while debutante High Kicker deserves consideration.
