Verdict

A winner over hurdles recently, BARRIER very much appeals as the type to make her mark now her stamina is tested further returned to this sphere and Gordon Elliott's filly looks a live player in refitted cheekpieces. Pigeon House, a winner himself over hurdles at Punchestown last week, is similarly appealing from could well prove a lenient mark back on the Flat. Valleyoftheeagles and Folly Beach can also figure.
