Verdict
Though 0-8, JEREMYS DREAM has been pretty consistent and should win this if running up to her best. Little Light ran her best race so far at Limerick last month but that was over 2m5f and she has been struggling for pace over this shorter trip since. Vic's Little Miss wasn’t disgraced on her hurdling debut at Cork and also goes on the short-list with Dualla Time probably the pick of the others with experience.
