Formscan By Donal Murphy - Second in this race 12-months ago, WINTER FOG should prove hard to beat. A high class performer over flights, he failed to make an impact in the Galway Hurdle on his latest start and while he finished 11th, he still had some smart performers behind. It's surprising that Jody Townend isn't aboard the Willie Mullins-trained selection, with the Grade 1 winning pilot instead partnering Master Sydney. Successful in a bumper at Roscommon on her penultimate start, this Paul Flynn-trained four-year-old since failed to make an impact on her Flat debut at Galway. The Banger Doyle, Magnor Glory and Lord Ffrench are other leading contenders, with the latter successful over flights at Sligo last week.
For four years old and upwards, maidens at starting
Weights - 11st Fillies allowed 5lbs
Riders - Ladies who are Qualified Riders under I.N.H.S. Rules. Riders will receive allowances under Rule 52. This race will not be started from stalls.
