In depth
Verdict
Fast Tara had LOVE MOCHA a couple of lengths behind when placed at Dundalk in October but the latter looked green, despite having had experience of a barrier trial, and can reverse the form. Vikki Wall made a very promising debut at Dundalk in November but switched stables and was well beaten back there in January. Gunsight looked a likely future winner when runner-up at Killarney and may have been feeling the effects when running poorly eight days later. Grey Leader has a speedy pedigree while Hutton Glen is by Aclaim out of a mare who won on the Flat and over hurdles. Andy Slattery‘s horses are in good form so Believe Me Now is one to note along with Gordon Elliott‘s Doctor Nightingale, whose dam has produced winners with her first four offspring.
