Willie Mullins has won the last two of these and though AUGUSTA KATE faces some smart bumper horses and didn't beat much at Listowel she couldn't have been more impressive and it will be a surprise if she's beaten. There's a line of form through the third horse from that Listowel race that suggests she should have the beating of Kalopsia, though the latter is improving fast and won't be a pushover. Billy's Hope beat a good field at Punchestown last week to record his first success but the fly in the ointment could be Myztique. Gordon Elliott's filly made a successful debut at Fairyhouse in January when seeing off the attentions of Kate Appleby Shoes, who did the form no harm when scoring by a distance on her next two starts.
