Willie Mullins is a rare visitor here but is leaving no stone unturned in his bid for the trainers' title. Valyssa Monterg, however, doesn't look the best treated in this off a mark of 138. W Six Times is chasing a four-time but has to race from out of the handicap. Little Glenshee may find this company too hot and Run Ructions Run has been chasing but the novice Girly Girl is worth another try over 3m and won't mind conditions. Desert Queen led for along way in the Mares' Hurdle at Cheltenham and finished ahead of RON'S DREAM (NAP) and Morello Royale. But Peter Bowen's stayer is the pick of the weights today and will be much more at home on softer going so gets the nod.
