Verdict
EMILY ROEBLING, a winner between the flags, has been placed in nine of her 14 starts over hurdles. Well beaten on her chasing debut last month, she should finally get off the mark. Down The Park could provide the main threat as she has moved to Barry Connell after a very promising debut in a Fairyhouse bumper in December. Image Du Large ran in France last spring, ending with a close third over fences in May, but Jumping Jet has disappointed over timber since landing a point at Gowran two years ago. Another bumper winner, Stormalong, has also disappointed over hurdles but Bop Bop Bobbin, a winner between the flags, has run well in bumpers and makes her hurdling debut.
