Verdict
ELIZABETH J made a very promising hurdles debut when staying on over 2m3f at Galway and normal progress can see her gain her first victory. Moonlight Symphony showed her first sign of ability over the track and trip earlier this month while Morning Beatrice did much better when tackling soft ground at Wexford. Boher Cailin and Leac An Scail Lady both won between the flags before joining Henry De Bromhead with preference for the former, the choice of Rachael Blackmore. Beth Horan would enter the shortlist if getting a run from her reserve spot.
