Race preview

EIGHT AND BOB kept on at the same pace on the run-in when second over the extended 2m at Clonmel last time and could appreciate this stiffer test. Youcantcallherthat was touched off by a neck at Wexford on her last hurdles start and could give a good account off 5lb higher. Others for the shortlist are recent Thurles third Serious Ego and the returning Simple Steps, who has won off 1lb lower over fences in the past.
