Iolani was very impressive at Downpatrick in May and along with easy Ballinrobe winner Tower Bridge looks a fine prospect for hurdling. However, both have to concede lumps of weight to DALOUGA and Gordon Elliott's filly, beaten just a head in a huge field at Punchestown in May, can take advantage of her allowances. Broke Away ran well for a long way at Wexford last month and enters the equation though more likely for a place.
