Verdict
VROUM VROUM MAG puts her unbeaten record over fences on the line against race fit opposition but that s hardly likely to prevent a sixth consecutive victory. Willie Mullins mare won a bumper and scored over hurdles in France before arriving at the champion trainer's yard where she's been a revelation, scoring by wide margins without being tested. She s in the Hennessy at Newbury and this looks a nice pipe opener. Miss Dinamic has done very well so far and there s more to come though her victories have come on quicker ground but Perfect Promise won t mind the conditions and could be the main threat if none the worse for her fall at Limerick. Emcon faces a much more difficult task than when landing a beginners chase on her debut over fences here last month.
