Verdict

MENINDEE has been in good form over hurdles in recent months and she is taken to make a winning start in this sphere. Ardaghs Choice finally got his head in front when scoring at Wexford recently, but he looks vulnerable up 7 lb and and bigger threats may be posed by Krujers Girl and Nuttorridge.
