The three hurdles victories of In A Pinch have all been on good ground while Amor Verdadero gained her only success in similar conditions, though she ran quite well on soft at Punchestown last time. Moll Dote went up 12lb for winning a track and trip maiden, which has put a stop to her progress, while Shes Flat Tothemat is better known as a chaser these days and does better on quicker going. Winning point-to-pointer MY NEWBROOK ROSE won a 2m6f Thurles handicap on soft ground in March and made a promising comeback over a trip too short at Sligo. She has a nice racing weight and Sean Flanagan keeps the ride so she can go in again.
