Lotus Lily showed a bit of promise in a better race than this at Punchestown though how she will handle the softer ground is anyone's guess. Ms Bliss ran well at Wexford in April but that was also on quick ground and she'd been well beaten on heavy previously. CRYSTAL EARTH has run well in three of her four starts and the form of her close second at Tramore on New Year's Eve would probably be good enough so she's handed the vote. Nearly A Dream and Tisonlyme both won between the flags last time and should be considered along with the four-year-old Mandy Winger, who has shown promise in points and hails from a yard who do well with similar types.
