In depth
Verdict
Most of these have never encountered ground as quick as this though it shouldn't inconvenience winning bumper Erins Benefit, who found 2m too short at Tramore last time. MANITOPARK AA (NAP) won five times on the Flat in France, mostly on good going. She's been a very expensive failure in her four runs for Willie Mullins but the quicker going could see her finally off the mark. Monas Melody won a Punchestown bumper in September and made a very promising hurdling debut over the track and trip last month while Lorna Fowler has been among the winners and winning bumper Lady Heath can go well at a price.
