Verdict
Several of these are hurdlers with My Sister Sarah much the better of them. Willie Mullins' mare is rated 141 over timber and has also won a bumper and performed well in two runs under Flat Rules though she would prefer a longer trip. PALM BEACH is by Galileo and a full-brother to three winners including the useful stayer Southern France. He made an eye-catching belated debut at Tipperary last week, coming with a late run when the race was all over, and can start making up for lost time. Star Of Juniper is also owned by Coolmore and has a superb pedigree. He'll be better for his run at Bellewstown while Starlight Dream ran a fine race behind Prose on heavy ground at Galway so would have to be considered in these conditions.
