It's impossible to see past ASTHURIA here. Willie Mullins' mare is very highly regarded as she made her debut for the yard in a Grade 1 at Fairyhouse in March where she did well to finish third behind Jer's Girl, who went on to land the Champion Novice Hurdle. There's nothing in this race with remotely comparable form and a first victory beckons. Petuna will be winning soon judged on her second place behind Cotton Jenny in a huge field at Cork though she was beaten a long way. Poetic Lady hasn't done as well as expected after her bumper success while four-times Flat winner Bobskier makes a belated debut over timber at the age of eight.
