In depth

Verdict

Mollys Glory took a big step forward when third in a Listed race at Thurles just before Christmas. She must have strong claims reverting to maiden company, though is more exposed than most. It will be interesting to see how winning bumper Eyre Square fares having a first run since May and Gavin Cromwell also runs Derrylinda. TAKE TEA was the only one backed against odd-on stablemate Brandy Love when making her hurdling debut at Naas. She travelled strongly for a long way, despite being too keen in the early stages, and will know more today. Jockey bookings suggest Chernikova will be the pick of Gordon Elliott’s trio while Copper Nation is reunited with the amateur rider who has already piloted her to success in a point and a bumper.
