Verdict
The one which stands out in this company is MOUNT SINAI, who ran to a fairly useful level at last year's Galway Festival and should come on from a recent spin over the larger obstacles. The unexposed Ovidstown Hill can give her most to think about, with Oh So Charming rounding off the shortlist.

VerdictOne win from 29 NH runs. 5/2, didn't have things go her way when sixth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (18.9f, good to soft) 13 days ago, shuffled back circuit out. Worth treating as still in form but may have her work cut out nonetheless.- 1. Oh So CharmingJ: J. P. O'SullivanT: Declan Queally, IrelandF: 2F4P3-41P
