CHOCOLAT NOIR shaped with promise last time at Navan and should have a race like this in her, with the booking of Smullen suggesting plenty confidence in her chances. Zamira was in front of the selection last time though may struggle to uphold that form on these terms. Dalmatia has won twice over hurdles and may be an improved performer back on the Flat now while the French filly Mais Si is very much one to note in the market on debut for these connections.
