Stuart Crawford has three entries but the well-bred Condesa was expected to run yesterday at Thurles and Burnt Ash makes her debut under Rules having failed to complete in two of her three runs between the flags. GAZWAH is a half-sister to a winning miler and has a Flat pedigree. Stamina may be an issue but the booking of Brian Hughes suggests a certain amount of confidence in her prospects. First Glory carries 7lb extra after winning on the Polytrack but her rider claims back all of that. Dream Over has won two points while Lisnagoorneen has a decent pedigree but a bigger danger may be Wetherby runner-up Haute Estime.
