Verdict
Lady Dromlac's second to Fugi Mountain at Sligo in July is the best form of those with experience but she blotted her copybook when fancied at Ballinrobe a few days later. Rif Raftou made a reasonable start on good ground at Tramore and providing she handles these conditions should improve enough to get involved. Undefined Beauty was beaten a distance here on Sunday so this should go to a newcomer and AUGUSTA KATE fits the bill. She's by Yeats out of the brilliant unbeaten bumper and hurdles winner Feathard Lady so has an immaculate pedigree for the job. Liss Croga is also well connected being by Kalanisi out of a very smart hurdler while anything Mags Mullins saddles in bumpers is worth noting so Sliabh Donn is one to keep an eye on.
