An uninspiring contest and it would be no surprise if the finish were to be fought by the two previous winners in the field with Turtle Dancer preferred over Ontos. The selection confirmed previous Irish hurdling promise when a comfortable winner over course and distance (Northern Echo behind) last month and should prove hard to beat. Ontos made mistakes before securing victory at Huntingdon last time out and has a little to find on the bare level of form. Westgate Run, who shaped with ability on her hurdling bow recently, looks best of the remainder.
