BLIXT started odds-on for her debut at Gowran but had no answer to Shimmer's Rock and Crackerdancer, who then finished 1-2 with the form reversed at Navan. Willie Mullins' mare should have come on a bundle for the experience and can take this. Wings Like Arion showed a bit of potential at Naas though it's a couple of point-to-point winners who may provide the biggest threat. Half The Odds won by 20 length at Tallow in February while Minutestomidnight scored under Jamie Codd at Lingstown last month. Simone has had her chances and may do better when tackling hurdles.
