Verdict

Winner of two of her 14 starts over hurdles, it may be worth taking a chance on MARY FRANCES who can go well at a price in this contest. The daughter of Well Chosen has a number of higher profile rivals to conquer but the seven-year-old ran with plenty of credit on return to action over C&D last month. The mare finished with 1L of the winner Westerner three weeks ago and can land the spoils here ahead of game veteran, Rathvinden and Punchestown Gold Cup third The Storyteller. Total Recall, one of three in the race for trainer Willie Mullins should not be taken lightly.
  1. Mary Frances
  2. Rathvinden
  3. Total Recall
