Irish raiders aplenty in this but none make much appeal. Quri, second in a Tramore maiden in June on her hurdling debut, is having a first run for Tom Lacey but the yard is going well. DERRIANA SPIRIT is tackling hurdles for the first time but she appeared to have something in hand when beating a subsequent winner in a Carlisle bumper in March and is a half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser Pure Vision. West Coast Lass defied big odds when just beaten at Perth in June and Keep The River was third at the same track last month so that pair look the pick of the remainder.
