KARALEE will be a warm order here. She made a bright start for the champion trainer back in May 2015 and it was almost two years before she returned with another very easy victory before ending the campaign with an excellent third behind Apple's Jade and Airlie Beach in the Grade 1 Mares Champion Hurdle at Punchestown, when Barra was beaten a distance. Tellthemnuttin has won six times over hurdles though her last victory was over a mile further so this looks too short. Dawn Shadow won a Clonmel maiden at the beginning of the month then finished runner-up in a Clonmel Listed contest so she's running well enough to get competitive though Dawn Shadow looks more of a threat. A very impressive maiden winner at Punchestown in May, she reappeared earlier this month to finish third in a Down Royal Grade 3 and there's much more to come.
