Lough Roe Lady pulled up when tackling 2m3f in very testing conditions at Limerick and is much better than that as she previously finished runner-up in a big field here. Flaming Pop has looked better when tackling heavy ground and a longer trip so could get outpaced here. She was just ahead of Chasing Shadows at Fairyhouse last time but that was over 2m4f and it wouldn't be a shock to see the positions reversed. GALIANNA is another who didn't appear suited by the very soft going at Thurles last time but her form on good ground looks strong and this four-times Flat winner can gain her first success over timber.
