If IRISH ROE was good enough to go off at 12/1 for a Grade 1 bumper at the Cheltenham Festival, then she should find a novice hurdle of this nature easily within her reach, even if she did slightly disappoint in graded company. She is taken to make a winning debut over hurdles, ahead of Polly's Pursuit, who was behind her at Aintree , and improver Lerechi Belle.
