Verdict

HOLLYGROVE CHA CHA looked above average in winning both outings in bumpers and there's no reason why she won't make a hurdler, so she gets the nod ahead of The Secret Pearl, who also showed something to work on in that sphere. Squiggles is worthy of a market check on debut for a new stable.

  1. HOLLYGROVE CHA CHA (IRE)
  2. THE SECRET PEARL (IRE)
  3. SQUIGGLES (IRE)
