Verdict
RATHNALEEN GIRL (NAP) had been in decent form last summer and was having only her second start back when storming home at Wexford last week. She's up 10lb but will take some stopping in that kind of form. Hello Sweetie completed a double over fences in May before well beaten from a much higher mark. She can return to hurdling 21lb lower so has to be considered. Mullinavat also reverts to hurdles having scored over the bigger obstacles at Wexford in May. He's on a massive 27lb lower mark so has to be on the shortlist. Wee Tiger has yet to win in 16 starts over jumps but has finished runner-up three times over timber and his turn should come soon.
