Cottie had Barbaha Queen in second when landing a maiden here last month so a big run from the latter in the opener would boost her chances. Winning bumper Lizlucky made a very encouraging reappearance at Punchestown last month and looks on a fair mark while MUST BE DREAMING showed much improved form to score at Wexford. The latter has a 7lb rise to contend with but can go in again as Tralee point-to-point winner Dangan Des Champs will probably need further. Hophornbeam, who is 0-18, has joined Gordon Elliott on a very lowly mark.
