Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares Handicap Hurdle
2m 5f 181y
Going: Good
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneVery few can be safely ruled out in this competitive affair. The winner of three hurdles last season, INFLUENTIAL LADY gets the nod. She made the breakthrough over fences at the Tramore August Festival and since ran a fine race to finish third on the level at Gowran. The Doyen eight-year-old makes plenty of appeal here off a mark of 103. Jimmy Barcoe trains the selection and is also represented by Frazel Express. Second on three of her last four starts and already a dual winner this year, she has definite claims with Cian Quirke taking a valuable 7lb off. A winner at Kilbeggan in July, Lily Light Foot has filled the runner-up spot in two starts since. She went down by just a neck on her most recent outing at Down Royal and it'll come as no surprise if she manages to go a place better now. Molly Wedger is a likeable sort and is the highest rated runner in the line-up. The Dermot O'Brien-trained eight-year-old should give a good account of herself, while Gotthenod is another leading hope
