Verdict
Braganza ran once for Ed Dunlop four years ago and is now with Willie Mullins. It wouldn't be a shock to see her make a winning start but she's probably best watched. Hollymount was a very expensive purchase after her bumper victory but has disappointed and may do better over further. She has a penalty to carry as does MONAS MELODY but the latter has been going well on the Flat and, with conditions in her favour, can get off the mark over timber. Powerful Out has had plenty of experience and ran very well in a Limerick handicap last week while Princess Sophia was well supported when falling at the second here last month.
