ME WEE BONNIE LASS shaped well in a competitive Cheltenham handicap last time and, with the emphasis on stamina unlikely to be quite so pronounced here, she could be the answer. The selection will probably have most to fear from Choccabloc, who looked the most likely winner when falling at the second-last in a Limerick novice on Boxing Day. Beggars Rock and Miss Pronunciation both have each-way claims.
