This may be a modest nursery but Mist Of Lir has failed to place in 10 starts so far, though has hinted at ability. LINE OF FIRE has to be the selection having run her best race so far when second over course and distance eight days ago. Blinkers are added today and she should confirm that form with Birkie Boy. Forest Guest may do better now handicapping and looks best of the rest.
