Cheltenham
Fri 14th Mar

Formscan  - Limerick Lace accounted for Dinoblue (second) and ALLEGORIE DE VASSY (fourth) in last year's renewal, but she hasn't pulled up any trees since and connections now reach for first-time cheekpieces. Allegorie De Vassy gained her revenge when beating Gavin Cromwell's mare by no less than 25 lengths in a Grade 3 at Fairyhouse prior to her neck defeat to Dinoblue at Naas. The Willie Mullins-trained eight-year-old will relish this step back up in trip and that will play to her strengths in her bid to get the better of her stablemate. Brides Hill was beaten at short odds in Listed company at Huntingdon, but she is a previous winner at this level and isn't out of it.
