WESTERNER LADY completed a hat-trick over hurdles at Galway in July and won by 25 lengths on her chasing bow at Kilbeggan. It's difficult to know what she beat that day but she's obviously a mare on the up and she'll be a short price to continue her winning run. Isabella Liberty has been placed in all three starts over the larger obstacles but is likely to find one too good again while Carole Rose appears to have lost the plot since winning at Wexford in July. Kara Loca is pretty much exposed and hasn't run since scoring at Fairyhouse in April.
