FormscanBy Mark Nunan - The eye is drawn straightaway to KLASSY KAY at the foot of the handicap, running off a mark of 80 on her first start for Willie Mullins. She’s certainly been found a winnable race and didn’t run badly on her first outing of the season at Sligo back in August. The champion trainer has had a bit of time with her since then and it’s fair to expect a nice bit of improvement as she drops back in trip. The Dreams Alive has the best piece of recent form having been runner-up over a little further at this track last time. Cheekpieces are added to the tongue-tie she wore on that occasion and she’s likely to take a hand in the finish. Howluckycanwebe ran creditably in a higher grade at Punchestown on her first run for nearly a year and she mightn’t be far away if building on that effort. Coole Abbey hasn’t been beaten too far in his maiden hurdles and might be able to get competitive at this level.
