FUN FUN FUN opened with a 10-length bumper victory at Sligo then easily won a Leopardstown Grade 2 before well beaten in the championship event at Cheltenham. She disappointed in a Punchestown Grade 3 on her final start but she is bred to be very smart over jumps. Gaillimh A Run won bumpers here and at Naas before ending with a reasonable run in an Aintree Grade 2 that has worked out very well. Rockstown Girl has finished behind the aforementioned pair in bumpers but has the benefit of a run over timber having just failed to concede the winner 8lb at Fairyhouse last month. Bestaline has winning form on the Flat in France and has been running better than her form figures suggest.
