Race preview
The well-bred LIADAWN can make a winning start for Willie Mullins. She's a half-sister to a five-time winner for the stable who was good enough to win a bumper on debut at Punchestown and who also obliged in a Grade 3 novice hurdle at Tipperary. Walks The Talk was a nine-length winner of a point-to-point and starts out on her track career for John McConnell. Gordon Elliott's No More Silver is highly likely to come on from an opening fifth over hurdles at Ballinrobe last month, while newcomer Tina Yeats is by Yeats out of a Walk In The Park mare, so there is potential on breeding.
