Won a Leopardstown bumper in December and caught the eye when finishing second of 12 beaten 1L on good ground over a similar trip at odds of 20/1. Open to more improvement here.
Failed to land a hat trick of wins when stepped up to Grade 1 level at Leopardstown last month in the Arkle novice chase won by Le Richebourg. Holds four entries at the festival and appears the one to beat here.
C&D winner of a beginners chase in November but has generally been well held in four starts including three Grade 1 contests. Career best when third of seven beaten 15½L in a Grade 3 novice chase at Punchestown in January. Leading player.
Three from seven over the larger obstacles but remains well behind the main protagonists on official ratings. Needs others to falter and looks up against it here.
Forecasts
Duca De Thaix (9/10), Jetz (11/8), Benruben (11/1), Mrs Lovett (12/1)
Fourth of six finishing 22L adrift of Le Richbourg in the Grade 1 Arkle novices at Punchestown last month appears to be the outstanding piece of form here which should see DUCA DE THAIX land the spoils in this Grade 3 contest over the Jessica Harrington-trained Jetz. Mrs Lovett in the colours of Simon Munir and Isaac Souede can run into third ahead of Benruben.
- Duca De Thaix
- Jetz
- Mrs Lovett
