Flamingo's Court scored over this trip at Thurles a year ago and would have a chance provided the pace was strong. Reine Fee makes her handicap debut over fences and her best run came over this trip at Down Royal but EXIT TO THE WEST (NAP) looks a progressive type and can take this. A winning point-to-pointer and hurdler, she's run really well in her three starts over fences culminating in an easy victory at Cork and she again performed with credit back over timber at Punchestown. Sovereign Gold, a dual winner between the flags, has yet to score under Rules but stayed on well at Naas last time and has to be respected.
