Verdict

Making her handicap chase debut, BREAK MY SOUL produced her best effort over fences when third in the Grand Annual at Cheltenham and, with a good record fresh, she is taken to add to her C&D victory a year ago. Golden Joy was a good second at Leopardstown in February and is feared most for his new yard.

1	Ran to a useful level when making a winning chasing debut over this C&D a year ago and good effort sent handicapping over fences when third in the Grand Annual at Cheltenham in March.

2	In first-time hood, returned to form when runner-up in listed handicap at Leopardstown in February. Behind when falling at the last at the Punchestown festival on his final outing for Gordon Elliott and last of 5 finishers in a point since, though he could bounce back. 2nd Pick 2 Golden Joy (Fr) Jockey: Jordan Colin Gainford Trainer: Cian Michael Collins, Ireland J: Jordan Colin Gainford T: Cian Michael Collins, Ireland	100	-	-	-	10%

6	Dual hurdles winner. Still a maiden over fences but went like the best horse at the weights when runner-up to a next-time-out scorer in handicap at Wexford (19f) in August. Has disappointed both starts since so needs to get back on track. 3rd Pick 6 Leave In Secret (Ire) Jockey: H. E. Sexton Trainer: T. Gibney, Ireland J: H. E. Sexton T: T. Gibney, Ireland	97	-	-	-	29%
