MISS ABBY JOOLS came good at just the second time of asking for new trainer Charles Byrnes at Dundalk in March and that form has been boosted so a 3 lb nudge may not prevent her following up. Colin Keane's mount Yokkell was in good nick when last seen in the autumn and should play a part if ready to roll after a break. Morning Approach could leave her reappearance behind and also makes the shortlist.
