Verdict

Sharlanda is penalised for a very impressive victory over fences at Limerick after which she won a handicap hurdle at Downpatrick. She probably bumped into a useful chasing recruit when just failing to catch A Rated over a trip too short at Wexford last week and will take some beating here. But MISS EYECATCHER, a winner over timber at Galway last month, was also runner-up to a potentially useful performer in Don't Tell No One at Killarney and, in receipt of 7lb, may just be good enough to go one better. Ask Susan has had a run on the Flat since a reasonable chasing debut at Galway though she'll need to do better and Leader's Choice faces a stiff test on her chasing bow.
