Liquid Luck was a 33/1 chance on his Dundalk debut but was beaten less than a length and has the ideal pedigree for this trip. Shamiyan showed the benefit of his opening run with a close third over 1m4f on heavy ground here in October and looks a certain improver. Winner Takes Itall had a couple of runs at the Curragh in 2018 and scored over hurdles at Listowel in September but NAN YEHI should be losing her maiden tag soon and this looks a good opportunity. Her two placed efforts in the autumn were on heavy going but she'd performed with credit on quicker ground earlier.
