Verdict
Ferdia and L'impertinent both won their only starts over hurdles on this track, the latter looking a nice prospect when landing a maiden last month. You Raised Me Up, rated 134 over hurdles, has come up against very smart prospects in two runs over the larger obstacles but three-times winning hurdler Jacksons Gold has yet to take to fences. CALL ME LYREEN is rated 146 over timber having won a Grade 2 as a juvenile and landing a Grade B handicap at Leopardstown in February. He'll take some beating with a clear round.
