Redhotfillypeppers, a winning point-to-pointer and bumper, won a maiden hurdle at Punchestown in February and has run in much better company subsequently though disappointed in Listed company at Punchestown. Her allowance is a bonus here though SCHEU TIME (NAP) may have her measure. An easy winner of a Thurles maiden, he went to Aintree for a handicap where he fell at the last while in the lead. Compensation awaits though Whisperinthebreeze has tackled strong company since his Naas maiden victory. The Granson was left clear when his nearest rival fell at the last at Limerick but he had the rest well beaten and it was an improved performance.
