The ground at Carlisle can become extremely testing when there has been sufficient rain and often leads to some strange results. However, Ar Muin Na Muice has shown that she can already handle give underfoot and looks to have been found an easy opportunity to enhance her reputation. The Cheltenham Festival has long been a target for her in some capacity and she is defiantly one to keep on the right side of whilst she is campaigned at this level. Course and distance winner Royal Emperor will ensure that Jonjo O'Neill's charge does not have things all her own way and is the likeliest candidate to benefit if the trip is beyond Ar Muin Na Muice at this stage. Diamond Cottage would appear to be the best of the rest.
