In depth

Verdict

Daphne Moon and La Chanteuse have won over hurdles here. The former has run very poorly in two subsequent starts over timber while the latter only got as far as the first on her chasing debut at Naas. Winning point-to-pointer and dual hurdles winner Bay Ambition made a bright start over fences when runner-up at Galway but has been well beaten in better company subsequently and it's about time DARRENS HOPE was winning over fences. A Grade 2 winner over hurdles, she couldn't keep tabs on Concertista in the Grade 2 Dawn Run at Limerick but had the remainder well beaten. She had little chance at Naas last time but has the beating of Dolcita on the form book though Willie Mullins' mare should improve for the step up in trip. Fort Worth Texas had no chance against Enegumene at Gowran but stuck on well and had the remainder well beaten.
