Not surprisingly most of these would prefer a set of hurdles in front of them including GUDNIS GRACIOUS ME, who gained a very easy victory over timber on fast ground at Kilbeggan last month. With a rating of just 49 on the Flat, she'll think she's been let loose here and will be very difficult to beat. Sabaidee is an obvious threat after a spectacular 7l victory over 1m6f at Bellewstown for which the assessor took due note and raised her a massive 17lb. Rocket Man has never tackled ground anywhere near this quick and has a huge weight but the versatile Head Waiter has won in all kinds of conditions though he'd be better off running on the all-weather where he's 15lb lower.
