Maiden hurdle win came here (2m4f, good) last summer; softer ground in recent outings wouldn't have been ideal so potential improver now back on better ground, having not quite got home when fourth in 2m4f novice handicap on chase debut here last month (well-backed); drops in trip.

Verdict

A maiden hurdle winner here last summer, LADY DOYANNE made a solid start to chasing at Tramore behind a mare who has franked the form recently so can take this. Tequila Talkin also goes well at this track and can do better than her below-par effort here last time. [Tyrone Molloy]
