This is a low-grade handicap and the market could prove a good guide. Barna Venture is better known as a chaser but failed to take advantage of a much lower hurdles mark at Tramore. Knockanora Lady started favourite at Down Royal last week on the back of a very good run at Thurles but failed to fire and was pulled up. Hughies Bay is 0-47 and was well beaten at Limerick on Sunday but PRETTY LITTLE LIAR looks to have as good a chance as any. A winner at Stratford in June, she lost a shoe on her next start and a run on the Flat last month should have put her straight for this. Major Fawcett has never looked like winning but has taken a dramatic tumble in the weights.
