Verdict

Bumper winner PETUNA won over hurdles at Punchestown last month before landing a maiden on the Flat on her latest start. She can give weight to these in her current form. Oh Me Oh My made a winning racecourse debut over timber at Clonmel for Joseph O’Brien and is less exposed than both Twilight Shadow and Rathmuck Native, who won maiden hurdles at Downpatrick and Cork respectively on their latest starts. Poetic Lady has won a bumper but looks up against it on her form over hurdles so far.
