Shaped promisingly in filling the same position as he had on his sole outing in points 7 months earlier when second of 10 in maiden hurdle at Ffos Las (20f, good to soft) just over 3 weeks ago. An imposing sort, he's likely to progress.

Mahler gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful hurdler Noah And The Ark and bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Collen Beag, stayed 21f. Dam unraced. Worth a market check on debut.
Timeform Verdict
The Skelton yard are firing on all cylinders at present and SALLYVILLE LADY can provide them with another winner on Rules debut having been successful on her sole start in Irish points last December. The main danger may emerge from Dig Deep, who shaped promisingly when runner-up first time up over hurdles at Ffos Las recently and is open to improvement. Jackpot Cauveliere and Sogna In Grande can fight out third.
Betting Forecast
10/3 Dig Deep (Ire), 5/4 Sallyville Lady (Ire), 6/1 Jackpot Cauveliere (Fr), 9/1 Sogna In Grande, 20/1 Paul Manate (Fr), 14/1 Might As Well (Ire)
