Verdict
ROBIN DE CARLOW is bred to be a smart chaser but had the pace to land a Ballinrobe bumper in May and can make a successful start over obstacles. Presentingprincess won a Limerick bumper over this trip after a good run over hurdles at Gowran but didn't make the expected progress at Downpatrick last time. Sunrise Lady led for a long way in that latter race, which was over 2m6f, so she's likely to make the running again and could take some catching. Pocket Dial showed potential in bumpers before a fine effort over timber at Tipperary where she stayed on late. She may prove better over further and the remaining pair have plenty to do.
