POLLYWOLLYDOODLE looks to have the best form of those with experience and she was far from disgraced at Kilbeggan in August after placed efforts at Down Royal and Killarney. Eoin Griffin's mare gets the nod though Kymin's Way, in the frame at Thurles and Wexford in March, will make a race of it if fully wound-up and point-to-point winner Caoimhe's Delight was a good second to Moscow Chief on her debut under Rules at Tipperary and is open to improvement. La Femme Blanche has gone backwards since finishing second at Roscommon in May, however, so newcomer Majestic Preacher may have a better long-term future.
