Verdict

Having made an impressive winning reappearance at Naas in November, CRECORA HILLS ran just as well from her much-inflated mark when a keeping on third at this course (19.7f) 5 weeks ago. Unexposed granted this sort of test, she shades preference over Gaoth Chuil who is potentially very well treated on her hurdle exploits now handicapping in this sphere. Sophia Rose and Nine Graces are others with sound claims.

  1. CRECORA HILLS (IRE)
