Verdict
Xpectations didn't find as much off the bridle as expected at Limerick but wasn't beaten far and still finished ahead of Pace And Passion. Mags Mullins' well-bred mare will be fancied to go one better here as she has more scope than Rathmuck Native and Behana. PRICKLY is by Definite Article out of a winning hurdler and, though she'll undoubtedly do better when faced with a set of obstacles, may well be good enough to make a winning start in this sphere.
