FormscanBy John O'Riordan - MOLLY KAYE was pulled up at Thurles last time but is afforded another opportunity to exploit her mark over hurdles. A dual winner on the flat during October, the mare had been well fancied to go one better than when runner up on her penultimate start under National Hunt rules. In a race where few look to have a realistic chance, the Shane Duffy-trained mare can get back on the winning trail. Thefaithfulindian also disappointed in that same Thurles contest, managing only eighth, having gone close on her previous two starts. She, too, is well treated over hurdles and should be involved if back on song. Little Mixup carries a penalty for a mid week success at Limerick but won't find life easy under such a welter burden.
