Verdict
Leanne has some very useful form at Grade 3 level and would have been the selection over shorter but her overall form suggests she needs a stiffer test of stamina. Cruising Katie didn't get far on her first two starts over fences but came good at Limerick though she would have finished second but for the leader falling at the last. Ballymac Beauty was a long way behind and looks held while winning pointer Drain Hopper will be making her debut over regulation fences. KIND OSCAR set a blistering pace over 2m1f at Clonmel in March and nothing could get close. While this is further the faster going should help her get home and she can once again repel all challengers.
