Cut The Mustard won two of her three bumper starts in France and started odds-on for her hurdling debut at Limerick but didn't get home over 2m2f on heavy ground. She's expected to do much better though this is no easy task. Moyhenna had shown real potential in two starts over timber before reverting to a bumper on New Year's Eve and scoring here. She's an obvious threat while Tell Me Annie was very impressive in her two victories between the flags a year ago, though makes her debut under Rules at an advanced age. Biddy The Boss did well in bumpers and was only beaten half-a-length by MOONLIGHT ESCAPE at Fairyhouse in October. The winner just failed to make all over hurdles at Clonmel and will take some beating with further progress likely. Her stable also run Turanga Lilly, who makes her hurdling debut after three reasonable bumper runs.
