Verdict

GENESTA hasn't quite been lasting out of 2m4f after a very good run over the minimum at Punchestown so this trip should prove ideal and she will be difficult to beat. Hello Sweetie let her supporters down on several occasions last year though today's quicker going could be in her favour and an absence since December shouldn't be too much of a problem. Brooklynn showed a bit of potential at Sligo and should improve while Lucy Mc, a very moderate point-to-pointer, ran well for a long way on her hurdling bow at Wexford.
