PRESENTINGPRINCESS, three times a winner between the flags and a bumper winner at Limerick, landed a maiden hurdle over 2m5f at Galway after a narrow defeat over this trip at Listowel. She has plenty going for her, including Conor Orr's claim, and will take some beating. Plan Of Attack, another point-to-point winner, also makes his handicap debut and steps up to a more suitable trip but Movingswiftlyalong found an 8lb rise for her Ballinrobe victory too much to handle at Listowel. Oighear Dubh has been running well over fences and reverts to hurdles on a 9lb lower mark while Harrys Gift appears to be improving and wouldn't need much more to make the frame again.
