Verdict

Few of these look to have much scope and Ballybrowney Ella was beaten a long way at Fairyhouse last month. Catcheragain should be suited by stepping up in trip while winning point-to-pointer Jodies Miss would have a big chance on her close second to Side Saddle at Fairyhouse last month as she was outclassed in a Grade 3 next time. However, she was beaten five lengths between the flags at Horse and Jockey by MIDNIGHT THEATRE (NAP) last March when receiving 5lb so Gavin Cromwell's mare, who was impeded by a faller on her hurdles debut at Navan in December, looks the one to be on.
