Dual hurdles winner Bargy Lady made too many mistakes on her chasing bow at Sligo though wasn't beaten far and will have learned plenty. Polar Present finished just in front but already had experience and may not confirm the form, especially as she's since fallen at Gowran. Creation has never run on anything but testing ground though her close second in a Listed hurdle at Punchestown in April was a fine effort and she's a sister to a useful chaser. MAKE MY HEART FLY completed a four-timer over hurdles in minor contests in the UK but did even better when runner-up in a Listed contest at Gowran eight days ago. Her dam won over fences so she could do even better over the bigger obstacles.
