This is certainly no straightforward task for DREAMBABY but the progress she showed when third at Tramore from her hurdling debut at Gowran was significant and she's hardly likely to regress at a track where she's already won a bumper. Baltimore Buzz, another bumper winner, only found one too good on his hurdles bow at Sligo and rates a danger. So does last month's Belleswstown second Static Jack while Poormans Hill scrambled home in a bumper here in July. Carlitos Bay may have needed the run when disappointing at Kilbeggan last month and jumping should be his game.
