Verdict

Given the level of ability she showed in bumpers, RULA BULA will likely prove hard to beat now upped in trip for this hurdles debut, provided of course that her jumping passes the test. Natus Vincere was a clear-cut winner of an Irish maiden point and she is respected given her status as that of an unknown quantity, while Zarhanya showed definite signs of ability in a Cheltenham bumper during the spring and she could be seen in a better light now hurdling and faced with a stiffer test.

  1. RULA BULA (IRE)
  2. NATUS VINCERE (IRE)
  3. ZARHANYA
