Twice a winner on the Flat, Flicker Flame posted a better effort over track and trip a fortnight ago but is conceding weight to MISS ALOUD. Gordon Elliott’s mare returned to action with a second in a bumper at Wexford and gets the vote to make a winning start over timber. Gambling Mistress was still beaten a long way when runner-up over hurdles at Kilbeggan during the summer but Bonarc wasn’t beaten far when second at Ballinrobe the last time she raced over obstacles. Cornerkova hails from a family of winners over jumps and is a newcomer to note.
