Verdict
This won't take much winning, despite the large field, and SPACE TOURIST (NAP) looks the safest route to take. She ran well on her sole hurdles start before moving to Willie Mullins for whom she landed a Tramore bumper before finishing a fair third behind the high-class Corbetts Cross in a Cork bumper last October. Her absence since is not a concern. Cash The Cheque was a little disappointing last time but her overall profile brings her into contention with the increase in distance likely to suit. Glendars Mahler has a shout if ready after an absence while Weseekherthere. Miss Madeline and Tideways Hero are all lightly-raced possible improvers.
