Winning bumper Annie Other was having only her second start over timber when easily landing a maiden over this C&D last month and there's plenty more to come. Black Rock Lake was having her eleventh run over hurdles when successful over the minimum here last month and ran quite well in a tough Galway handicap subsequently. Cinderella Story defied several mistakes to score at Ballinrobe and will need to jump better here so the vote goes to MISS ACCURATE. Bryan Cooper was shown to good effect when steering his mount to victory on her hurdling debut at Sligo and there's plenty of improvement left in the filly who had earlier landed a Wexford bumper.
