Desert Heather completed a hat-trick between the flags at the backend of last year and needs a thorough test of stamina which she should get in today's conditions. Emily Roebling has been placed in ten of her 15 starts over hurdles and won't mind the going but this can go to MUSIC OF TARA. A winner between the flags, she was attempting to concede 16lb when narrowly beaten in a huge field of handicappers over the trip at Navan earlier this month. Roccos Inspiration would have a definite chance on her best form while Silent Approach showed her first sign of ability at Gowran though that was over two miles.
