LUCIOLE DES BORDES refused to settle making her hurdling debut over 2¾m at Tramore in May, but dropped in trip she's well worth another chance for her leading yard. She is taken to get the better of hurdling newcomer Belladaball, who was a listed winner in bumpers, while Longhouse Legacy is interesting for her new yard.
