Verdict
Carrow Queen and Keith's Delight are both bumper winners and the former will be all the better for her hurdling debut at Sligo. Over Church Road probably has the best hurdling form but has been a beaten favourite twice at Downpatrick recently while Mutiska failed to build on her Wexford second at Tramore, though hasn't run badly on the Flat since. MYBLUEEYEDGIRL would have gone very close at Ballinrobe in July had she not fallen at the last. Gillian Callaghan's mare deserves another chance as she clearly has ability and should be suited by the longer trip.
