Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneRace Tip
MAGIC DAZE was runner-up to stablemate Telmesomethinggirl in the Mares' Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham and might win today. Largely unexposed prior to Cheltenham, she ran a cracker and while no match for the winner, beat subsequent Grade 1 winner Skyace into fourth. Gauloise underperformed there and while she returned to form when second to Skyace at Fairyhouse, might struggle to turn form with the selection and was also beaten in a Grade 3 in February. Bigbadandbeautiful won two Listed bumpers and did it stylishly on her belated hurdles debut last month. Open to improvement, she will be suited to a sound surface but isn't as streetwise as the opposition. Hook Up is capable but is held on previous meetings by both Magic Daze and Gauloise, while Global Equity is held by both Hook Up and Gauloise. The West Awaits won an ordinary maiden hurdle easily at Cork but might find a few too strong.
