JALILA MORIVIERE quickly got to grips with hurdling in France, running a cracker behind a promising one at Auteuil when last seen, and she could be the way to go in this tricky contest. Stablemate Kilcruit is feared most ahead of Karl des Tourelles.

Useful hurdler. 4/9, second of 5 in novice chase at Thurles (22.4f, good) on debut over fences 36 days ago, finding less than looked likely. Could figure back down in trip and over hurdles.

Verdict
Well held in bumper for Paul Nicholls 13 months ago but got the hang of hurdling in France, much improved when 5 lengths second of 11 to promising Jour de Gloire in listed event at Auteuil (17.9f, soft, 17/1) when last seen in May. Clearly of interest now starting out for the Mullins yard.
