Pretty Little Liar would be interesting if getting a run from her reserve spot but needs three to drop out. Merroir and Time And Money have both won twice this year but Blowing Dixie did all of his winning in the UK at Southwell. No Thanks has been creeping up the handicap without winning so this can go to MR COLDSTONE. A winner over hurdles at Tramore at the start of the year on his first start for Willie Mullins, he is potentially thrown in running in his first handicap on the level.
