Verdict
Harry Rogers and Mereyem Walsh won this a year ago and NARLITA comes here with a winning chance after scoring on heavy ground at Bellewstown last week. Aine O'Connor gets a good ride on Beautiful Chaos, narrowly beaten the last twice but behind Vischio at Tramore in July when the winner was initiating a double. Jody Townend takes the ride on the latter while Archie Watson sends Let Her Loose over from the UK with regular rider Brodie Hampson on board. Whatcouldhavebeen was racing in top company over hurdles last winter after easily landing a Galway handicap over this trip last October.
