Course bumper winner CAMELETTA VEGA was successful on hurdles debut at Cork in May and that form could hardly have worked out better, with runner-up Emily Love going on to win 4 times subsequently. She gets the vote of confidence from stable jockey Paul Townend and is taken to make it 2-2 over hurdles. Strong Link looked a useful prospect when recording a smooth success on hurdles bow at Tipperary and he may prove next best ahead of Willie Mullins' other runners Keep Up and I Am River.
