Official ratings suggest MSMILAN is home and hosed here as she's now on a mark of 116 after a fine run when just failing to hold Delegate at Roscommon. That puts her 10lb clear of Genesta, though the latter has been running very well since tackling quicker ground and fully deserved her victory at Downpatrick where she overcame trouble in-running. Oh Me Oh My started off with a maiden victory at Clonmel and was by no means disgraced when failing to hold off Rathmuck Native on softer going at Sligo. Vintage Salon showed nothing in bumpers but it was a different matter on her hurdling debut at Roscommon where she gained a surprise but comfortable victory over Kalopsia. There's more to come from her and she could provide the main threat.
