That's My Dubai has been beaten a long way at Wexford and Thurles in her last two starts and looks vulnerable and the remainder with bumper experience have shown little. That should mean a clear path for STOPS A NATION to make a winning start for Willie Mullins as she's a half-sister to Wicklow Brave and several other winners. Willie McCreery doesn't have many bumpers so More Lies Ahead, who is bred for the Flat, is one to note. Belle Sassie has a more conventional jumping pedigree and would probably be better suited by a stiffer test.
