An 8 lb rise for last month's Tramore success may not be enough to prevent LADY MCCABE from completing the hat-trick. Indeed, she is clearly at the top of her game at present and moving back up in trip here will, if anything, be a good thing. Four Country Roads is second choice ahead of Big Leg Up and School Lane, while Westy Fox will be of interest if the market vibes are positive.
