Verdict

Gordon Elliott boasts a strong hand in this maiden hurdle with Turanga Lilly looking amongst the most interesting of the hurdling debutants and MOONLIGHT ESCAPE probably setting the overall standard with her narrow defeat at Clonmel last time out. The latter is entitled to the vote with the heavy underfoot conditions in her favour once again, though it's hard to believe there isn't much more to come from dual French bumper winner Cut The Mustard. Moyhenna and unbeaten point-to-pointer Tell Me Annie are also interesting.
  1. Moonlight Escape
  2. Cut The Mustard
  3. Turanga Lilly
