Fourina is 1-14 over hurdles and that victory was gained in heavy ground over slightly further. All About Alfie has struggled since beating a huge field of handicappers at Naas in December but is only 1lb higher. MOLL DOTE was well supported at Gowran in November, despite returning from a long absence, and ran very well and she should be suited by the longer trip so gets the vote in a moderate contest. Milly's recent form on testing ground gives her an obvious chance though she's 0-20 which doesn't inspire confidence. An Marcach is also a maiden but has shown enough to suggest he'll be winning soon at a low level.
