FIRST DARE (1) won a 2m1/2f handicap hurdle at Tramore and the Liz Doyle trained mare looks to be heading in the right direction. Can defy a 9lb rise in weights. TA NA LA (6) finished runner-up that day and since posted another good effort in defeat when fourth over 2m4 1/2f in a handicap hurdle at the same venue. HASTEN SLOWLY (4) cannot be ignored on her first hurdle outing since landing a maiden at Tramore in August. SADDLE HER UP (2) makes for each-way appeal.
