Race preview
WE GOT THIS recorded a 100/1 shock on debut in a mares maiden hurdle at Navan in March and the form looks quite solid with the first four pulling clear. The runner-up Broomfield Bijou has won both outings since including a handicap at the Punchestown Festival off a mark of 118 so this initial rating seems fair with the prospect of further improvement to come. The locally-trained Red Ball Of Fire won twice over C&D in 2021 and made a promising return when finishing strongly here on the Flat in May. She was fitted with blinkers for the first time when runner-up at Listowel last time and the booking of Michael O'Sullivan is significant. Nodoubtaboutthat has been lightly raced since winning at the Galway Festival in 2021 and gave some encouragement in two outings last month. Purse Price and Angelsworknovrtime have both been frustrating to follow.
