An 11-race maiden; uninspiring handicap form over hurdles and can be opposed on chase debut. |

Punchestown handicap hurdle win in December (3m, heavy) is her sole success in 30 runs; not the most consistent mare but she stays well and has a definite chance on her best form. |

Punchestown win in December (3m, heavy) is her sole success in 29 runs under rules; put a blot on her record at Gowran in January; much more like it when second at Thurles (2m7f, soft) last month; shortlisted. |

Wasn't out of the places in six starts prior to falling at the last at Wexford in April; has tended to be a weak finisher but this easier track could well suit. |

Won mares' maiden hurdle at Tipperary (2m1f, yielding) last May; handicap runs over various trips not entirely convincing but fine seventh of 20 at Cork over 2m4f off 99 three weeks ago; enters the discussion. |

Won twice at Clonmel last spring on heavy (2m) and good (18.5f); is just 1lb higher now than for the latter win and this trip more suitable than when soundly beaten over 2m6f here last time. |

Maiden has shown ability in bumpers and her best maiden hurdle run came over 2m4f at Punchestown last month, keeping on strongly into third behind an all-the-way winner on soft; headgear combination now tried and place claims again. |

Progressive in handicaps in the first half of last season, gaining a third handicap success in 2m4f Clonmel mares' event in October; back to her best in first-time cheekpieces in 2m1f Limerick Grade 3 early this month, staying on for third behind two much higher-rated rivals; dam has already produced a couple of winning chasers so quite possible she could improve for the switch to fences. |

Verdict
Milanaway is respected, while the handicap form shown by Shana Cloon will put her in the mix if she can repeat it. The selection is BARRIER after two good runs in maidens at Naas and Gowran. She is the standard bearer. Whatsupnellie can shake up a few on her hurdles debut. [Justin O’Hanlon]
