Henry De Bromhead has had plenty of winners in recent weeks and MOONLIT THEATRE looks another for the yard. Runner-up on her racecourse debut over hurdles, though beaten a long way, she returned to form in a Kilbeggan bumper and has plenty of improvement in her. Erkindale Lady looked in need of a bit further when third at Fairyhouse and may have to wait for some give in the ground before getting off the mark while winning bumper Red Pearl has been looking one-paced over timber and a longer trip may suit. Bridge Native has been very consistent in low-grade bumpers and wouldn't need to be a world-beater to make a successful hurdling debut.
