Formscan By John O'Riordan - Bumper winner LILANNBEE(3) can gain a first success over hurdles. Fourth on her first two starts over jumps, the Sonny Carey trained mare sets the standard amongst those with previous hurdles experience. Fourth at Wexford on her penultimate start, that looks just about the best piece of individual form on offer, and with the benefit of that experience, the five-year-old can get her head in front. Second on all three bumper runs since joining trainer John McConnell, Myluckymaker rates a clear danger on her hurdling debut. Provided she takes to jumping, the daughter of Policy Maker holds every chance. Griffaldo has to be monitored in the betting on his debut as this doesn't look the strongest of contests.

Quotes on Lilannbee (GB)
It was my own fault the first few times she ran as she wasn’t right, and she’s improving all the time. We always thought she was a nice filly and she’s starting to prove it now.
