MONEY DANCER achieved enough in her 2 hurdle outings last season to think a race like this should be within her grasp. Firebrand was an improved second over hurdles at Roscommon last time and should play a prominent role again if in similar form. Pas Peur de Toi hasn't been seen since winning a point in spring 2023 but is with a top stable and would also enter the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong.
