Jelara hasn't run since June when beaten 11 lengths at Down Royal but that isn't bad form in the context of this race. Sunndans was a 100/1 chance when beaten the same distance here last month though that was over 2m3f on ground with some give. WESTERNERONA has had two runs over hurdles on this track and has run well in both. She was travelling well throughout when beaten narrowly last time and should have enough basic speed to land this. Winning point-to-pointer Highstreet Roller didn't perform badly in a tough Punchestown bumper in November while Gise Girl showed a bit of potential under Richie Deegan at Clonmel and looks the type to do better.
