Those with hurdles experience are no great shakes and four-time Flat winner CRISTAL CLERE is taken to make a successful debut in this sphere. He is unlikely to be found wanting stamina-wise round here on what should be decent ground, and the booking of Rachael Blackmore adds to his appeal. Frankendael, herself a dual winner on the level, was a creditable third here last month and she is feared most ahead of Houlanbatordechais and Pampar Lady. Ballybrittas needs a market check on his Rules debut.
