Coolharbour Breeze has been looking one-paced and probably needs further while Taralga has run two poor races recently. Riltree has been beaten at short odds in bumpers at Limerick and Cork and it's difficult to know what to make of her but ASIYA has run some very good races on the Flat this year including when scoring on soft ground at Sligo in August. She's shown enough ability over timber to take this, especially as Fairly Definite, who showed some promise at Clonmel a couple of weeks ago, would be suited by a longer trip.
