This represents a sizeable step up in class for PREPARATIONS but she did the job well when outpointing an odds-on shot from the Joseph O'Brien yard on her recent debut in this sphere at Limerick and there is surely better to come from this filly. Blue Lemons didn't measure up to market expectations at the Cheltenham Festival but his sights are now lowered and he remains of interest, while Wendrock boasts solid form claims and Its Bilbo is also in with a shout.
