Verdict

HOPHORNBEAM continues to run well for her new yard, failing only narrowly to defy a 16 lb higher mark than when last in a handicap in her hat-trick bid at Sligo recently, and remains of interest. Her stablemate Return To Base is a potential improver after just 2 starts and is another to consider, while Purple Mountain made a winning hurdling debut at this meeting on her return last year so it would be no surprise if she bounced back.

  1. HOPHORNBEAM (IRE)
  2. RETURN TO BASE (IRE)
  3. PURPLE MOUNTAIN (IRE)
