Not much to go on here though dual point-to-point and hurdles winner TELL ME ANNIE has shown that a race of this nature should be within her capabilities. Her second to High School Days at Wexford would probably be good enough to beat a moderate bunch of rivals. Mega Mindy, who wasn't far behind in third, can get closer as that was her first start since June while Gracemount wasn't disgraced behind subsequent Irish National winner Burrows Saint at Gowran. Boragh Beat has changed stables and makes her debut over fences after a long break.
