Race preview
TIDEWAYS HERO beat geldings over this trip at Clonmel and is now 8lb higher and up in grade. She had been off for seven months prior to that breakthrough success and may be capable of further improvement. New Year Honours was in good form over hurdles last summer and chased home a smart horse on the all-weather in December. She had a spin in a charity race last month and may be able to resume progress in this discipline. One Night Standard shaped well in stronger maidens before easily justifying favouritism in a modest contest at Wexford. She has better ground and a shorter trip to deal with here, but could be on a fair mark for her handicap debut. Hidden Land has to make the shortlist given her liking for the track.
