THE BIG CLOUD was unable to justify market confidence when third at Punchestown last month but it was still another step forward (pulled clear of the rest) and she remains of interest. Rusheen showed big improvement when only just failing to make a winning handicap debut at Limerick and is an obvious threat, while Hillsdale is a potential improver switched to handicaps.
