Race preview
SHECOULDBEANYTHING won this last year and returned to Killarney to land a valuable handicap hurdle in August. She hasn't been at her best on her last couple of starts and has to give away weight all around but will enjoy getting back on spring ground and her C&D record makes her hard to oppose. Gordon Elliott has a strong hand and his other runner Royal Eagle is rated to beat the selection on these terms. Very progressive in handicap hurdles last summer, she'll be sharper for her return to action at Punchestown. The teak tough Effernock Fizz landed a big pot in game style at Fairyhouse over Easter. Well held since, she'll enjoy the ground and has such a willing attitude that she can never be discounted.
