Verdict
If turning up here in anything like her best form then WHITEOUT should find this relatively easy. Willie Mullins' Grade 1 winning mare has been racing on the Flat recently, where she has never been at her best and has still managed to acquit herself well. Now returning to hurdling and looking relatively well treated by the conditions of this race, she is taken to overcome fellow Graded-level competitor Automated , who has been running well in some much more difficult races than this recently, and Getoutwhenyoucan , for whom the return to hurdles should be a big help.
