FormscanBy Gary Carson - HEIA sets the standard here and looks the one to beat. The Willie Mullins-trained mare ran well in a decent mares race down in Killarney 13 days ago when held by a smart sort in Anna Bunina. She has a mark of 127 and her experience could prove a big asset here. Naughtinesse was an impressive winner on her hurdling debut at Tipperary earlier in the month and this is a nice stepping stone. She looked to have a bit to learn first time and while talented may find Heia a tough nut to crack now. Sadie's Pride won well in Wexford last month but this looks a fair bit hotter now.
