Aztec Pearl tackles testing conditions for the first time and could be suited though she hasn't been seen since May of last year. Kates Benefit has shown a little promise but MS BLISS looks the one to be on as she made a sparkling start when runner-up in a big field here in October and was tackling much stronger company at Navan a month later. Way Up In The Air did well enough on her debut at Cork to suggest she can get involved with normal improvement and she holds The Boys Dont Know on that run. She's Got Grit was surprisingly beaten in a point-to-point earlier this month after a fine run in a Tipperary bumper and may be best watched for now.
