Having landed a gamble when successful at Ballinrobe last month, MISS CORBY looks set to be suited by this longer trip on handicap debut and remains open to further improvement. She can follow up at the expense of Howdoyalikeherhome who's improved since joining the Gordon Elliott team, with Rockstown Girl not ruled out facing a more realistic assignment back over hurdles.
