LIFEBOAT MONA was a very smart performer in bumpers last season. She makes her hurdling debut but will have had plenty of schooling and her stable is always a force to be reckoned with around here. She should have too much class for Exeter fourth Jully Les Buxy and winning pointer Monet Moor but Mrsrobin was second to the selection in a point-to-point at Fairyhouse last year and is surely better than she showed when favourite at Exeter on her hurdles bow.
