FormscanBy Michael Graham - MERRY DOYENNE failed by a neck to land a gamble in Punchestown and could pick up compensation. That mares' maiden hurdle was over a similar trip to this staying test and three subsequent winners have come out of it. Lunar Display ran a creditable race for third at 66/1 in a good mares' novice hurdle at Navan in February. She holds a rating of 121 and is a significant threat. Eyre Square won a mares' bumper at Wexford in March before filling the runner-up berth on hurdling debut at Limerick last month. She can go well up in trip. Sweet Street is another for the shortlist.
A hurdle for four years old and upwards mares only, maidens at startingWeights - 4-y-o 11st 1lbs 5-y-o and up 11st 9lbs
