A very moderate finale but ASK ME SISTER ran well for a long way on her comeback here last month and will probably be good enough. Point-to-point winner Midnight Socialite hasn't been seen since a very good effort behind Kilultagh Queen at Fairyhouse last November but would be an obvious threat if fit enough while Charlie Swan's Taraval could prove best of the newcomers as she's closely related to a decent bumper winner and out of a successful hurdler.
