FormscanBy Gary Carson - Willie Mullins has farmed this race, largely due to the great Quevega. This is probably the most competitive renewal of the contest with four genuine Grade One performers in the field. They all happen to be Irish as well and this really should go to one of the raiders. Willie Mullins has decided to leave LIMINI in against her own sex after the Champion Hurdle was mooted a few weeks ago following her impressive comeback effort at Punchestown. She surprised connections slightly then and looks to have improved from last year. She was very good when taking the mares novice race at this meeting last year and was far from disgraced when third to Champion Hurdle contenders Buveur D'air and Petit Mouchoir at Aintree. Her defeat at Punchestown subsequently was a touch disappointing but judged on the way she returned she could be hard to beat here. Apple's Jade was brushed aside in good style at Punchestown last month but probably wasn't best suited by having to go on and make her own running. With a strong pace here she could be a big danger. Vroum Vroum Mag was a good winner of this last year and is a terrific mare on her day. She perhaps hasn't quite hit the same heights this term and it's telling that Ruby Walsh sides with Limini. Jer's Girl faced a couple of tough tasks on her two outings this season but can't be discounted on the basis of her form last season. If tuned up for this she could get involved.
