Formscan By John O'Riordan - Having split two previous winners in a much stronger race on debut, ADRIENNE can record a first career victory. Although a maiden on the Flat after 13 starts, the Ted Walsh trained filly attained a mark of 70 in that discipline. Looking to improve for the switch to hurdling last time, the daughter of Kodi Bear could easily make up into a decent juvenile in the coming months. On the bare form of her most recent outing, she looks the one to beat. Galway runner-up Whats New has plenty of experience which should stand to him in this company. A son of Soldier's Call, he has the ability to win his maiden. Hurdling debutant Pebble Island is one to note.
A hurdle for three years old only, maidens at starting
Weights - 11st. Fillies allowed 7lbs.
