Bercasa returns to obstacles following a recent win on the level as she tackles the Monroe's Live John Monroe Memorial Mares Handicap Hurdle at Ballinrobe on Monday.

Tom Mullins' charge registered her first hurdles win at this track in April, but subsequently finished down the field at Punchestown before landing a Flat handicap at Leopardstown last time out.

Gordon Elliott fields two in bottom weights Smiling Eliza and Arctic Sofia while Dixie Lee heads the handicap after finishing third in Listed company last time.

Elliott is also represented in the BetVictor Handicap Chase with Dakota Moirette who has yet to win in 12 outings over fences.

John Ryan 's Draycott Place is a familiar name who also lines up, with Punches Cross returning from a 120-day break having boasted some decent form in the winter months. Foveros impressed with an eight-length victory on his Irish bow and he goes for gold again in the Sheridan Electric Hurdle.

Willie Mullins' runner is one of a handful of promising types in this extended two-mile heat, with Elliott's Coolongolook and Jessica Harrington's Morosini others of note. Skyace is another Mullins horse that merits close inspection in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares Flat Race while Callthebarman will try to step up on his recent return effort in the Tim Kelly Group Handicap Hurdle.
