Verdict
Glibin has been chasing and is on a high enough mark on her return to the smaller obstacles and though Galianna won a maiden hurdle at Navan in March she was beaten off a lower mark than this on her next start. Moonlight Sapphire has had a run on the Flat since her victory over timber at Tipperary and a 9lb rise in the weights may have given her too much to do here. Winning point-to-pointer OUR GIRL LUCY is taking her time to lose her maiden tag over timber but she's run very well on her two latest starts and the booking of Ruby Walsh suggests connections mean business so she's taken to gain her first success. Credit Box found 2m too short here last time and is better judged on her earlier run over 2m4f at Clonmel where she was caught close home by Baresi.
