Unbeaten winner of three chases including a Grade 1 against geldings, may extend sequence

No match for the 10lb-receiving Spindleberry at Fairyhouse, decent chance at these weights
5	Kilbarry Saint Brown J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:C O'Keeffe	J:Darragh O'Keeffe T:C O'Keeffe	144	t	44245-	128	154	143	200d	—	—	+17	24.1	2.50/1	10/1 9%
Ran with much credit in graded chases last term, likely to struggle against market leaders

128-rated hurdler with three wins to her name, this is ambitious on her second chase start

Laboured against strong opposition at Punchestown last month, similar scenario likely here

Two wins over hurdles, has struggled in three races over fences, out of her depth here.
