FormscanBy Tom Weekes - ROBIN DES SIVOLA can make a winning reappearance in an ordinary maiden. A 48,000gbp purchase following her point-to-point win, she showed useful hurdles form in 2019 and while well held in her only start this year (in March), that was a far stronger race than this and she has trip and ground in her favour today. 112-rated My Midnight was bold at Bellewstown six days ago when patently downing tools in the closing stages of a race which she should have won (wandered, hung, swished tail). She has finished second on six of her last eight starts and while she has plenty ability, she might do well to skip past ROBIN DES SIVOLA today. 97-rated Little Lady Lou has shown a reasonable level of ability in similar races to this in the past and, importantly, has good recent form at this venue to her name. She is ideally suited by trip and today's likely sound surface but is clearly vulnerable to more talented runners. More Info was useful in bumpers and while well beaten on hurdles debut at Roscommon, this is a drop in grade and she could go better today with that reappearance run behind her. Lady Rocco has shown some bits of form in two bumper runs but makes her hurdles debut today.
