Zipporah has won three times over hurdles and twice between the flags and though making her chasing debut at an advanced age has to be of interest. Isabella Liberty couldn't handle handicap class at Limerick but her previous runs in this sort of company put her in the frame though she was a long way behind LEADERS QUESTIONS in that Limerick event. Robert Tyner's mare attempted to make all that day and only just failed to hold the late thrust of Carole Rose so this should prove within her capabilities. Monbeg Rose started off well over fences but has been disappointing and was beaten a long way at Wexford last time.
