The way in which RUBY ISLAND has knuckled down for pressure on both hurdle starts to date suggests there's plenty more to come from her now stepping up in trip, so she's selected to maintain her unbeaten record in this sphere. Windtothelightning is also very promising and has to be taken seriously, with Bridget Breeze also of interest on this switch to hurdling having laid a solid platform in bumpers.
