FormscanBy Tom Weekes - An 11.55am throw-in here and HONEYSUCKLE can make a winning reappearance today having proven herself a top class novice hurdler last term. A mid-season hiccup meant she missed the Cheltenham festival but finished her season in style with a fine win in the Grade 1 mares' novice hurdle at Fairyhouse in April and she comes here the one to beat, receiving her mares' allowance against her principal dangers Mister Blue Sky and Easy Game. HONEYSUCKLE's racecourse form has been on a sound surface and while today's deep ground will be different, she won her point-to-point on soft and will appreciate today's trip. Mister Blue Sky is the Mullins first-string and also makes his seasonal reappearance. He too was a capable performer last season, winning a Grade 2 hurdle before signing off with a smart third-placing in a Grade 1 at Punchestown. He shouldn't have much trouble stepping up in trip today but is 13lbs wrong with HONEYSUCKLE and should struggle to beat her. Easy Game is another Grade 2 winning hurdler but has failed to make an impact at Grade 1 level and probably needs to improve quite a bit to win today. John Ryan's horses often force the pace and while his pair Le Hachette and Rippon Lodge are capable at their own level, will struggle to win today.%0A
