Best Of Dubai has been very consistent and though looking exposed this isn't the toughest of bumpers. Her stable companion Girley Talk is related to winners and wouldn't need to be special to land this at the first time of asking. Four-times point-to-point winner Holycross Lito didn't have much chance in a Listed contest at Navan but had made a fair start at Tipperary in May and is the type to do better. Ifyoucatchmenow has joined Willie Mullins after landing a point at Bartlemy in May though it's a surprise to see Patrick Mullins on board LADY LORETTO. Mags Mullins' filly started a short-priced favourite on her debut between the flags three weeks ago though didn't get very far but a chance is taken that she's better than average and her pedigree suggests she should have the pace to win a bumper.
