Dona Katharin will likely finish closer with last month’s modest debut under her belt and is preferred to the others with racecourse experience. But one of the newcomers would not need to be anything special to make a winning start and POKER D’AINAY gets the vote representing Willie Mullins. The latter is a half-brother to four winners while Hang In There is also related to winners and is another to keep an eye on ahead of Dedanann and the latter’s stablemate Doyen's Diva.
