Verdict
The consistent Anna Bunina has won ten races split between hurdles and the Flat including this a year ago. She couldn't hold Echoes In Rain in the Mares' Champion Hurdle at Punchestown but it will be a surprise if she isn't concerned in the finish. Shecouldbeanything had Walk With Paul and Night And Day behind when landing a Listed contest at Punchestown and is on the upgrade. Her stablemate PARTY CENTRAL could be the one to beat having landed a Listed contest at Punchestown last year before returning after a year off to beat a subsequent winner on the Flat at Gowran. Stablemate Media Naranja, placed at Cheltenham, is only four and one for the future.
