BIRDIE OR BUST shaped with promise when twice filling the runners-up spot in maiden hurdles earlier this year and, with potential for better still moving forward, she very much looks the one to side with. Cash The Cheque and Something Abouther head up the dangers, with Baby Chou also worth keeping an eye on.
