KOROLEVA is the first of several with leading claims on today’s card for Willie Mullins' powerful yard. The bumper winner finished second at Cork on her recent hurdling debut when 10 lengths clear of the rest and can go one better in this. Dasmyhoss is another winning bumper and is fit from racing on the Flat while All For Nothing wasn’t beaten far despite finishing only fifth in a maiden hurdle at Gowran. Cooldine Bog and Ozzie's Way have also placed in maiden company but Drole D'Artiste has shown little so far.
