Verdict

This all chase card gets under way with a beginners' event in which PENNY JANE should get off the mark over fences. A winning bumper and dual hurdles winner, she has come up against a couple of decent prospects in her last two runs over the bigger obstacles and should be suited by dropping back in trip. Aunt Eileen has won over hurdles on this tricky course but hasn't been in the best of form since returning from a long break. She makes her chasing bow as does Golden Flowerpower, who has won a point, a bumper and a maiden hurdle but hasn't run since pulling up at Fairyhouse in February. Balofilo would have to be greatly respected on his placed effort behind Don't Kick Nor Bite here last month though that was over 2m5f.
