Stayed on strongly on the run-in to assert close home on chasing debut in a beginners contest last month at Ballinrobe. More on the gelding's plate here but can go well if jumping fluently.
Progressed over hurdles in the early months of last season, notching a five-timer in the process. Won with ease on chasing debut last month at Killarney in novice company. Leading contender.
Built on promise of first two chases to win in a driving finish at Fairyhouse before suffering a 5½L reversal at Punchestown last month. Needs to jump better if he is to make a significant impact in this contest.
Was never going to get to Ravenhill on chasing debut last month in a 2m3½f beginners contest at Limerick but ran well enough to finish second of six. First-time cheekpieces fitted but will be of more interest in easier heats.
Progressive over hurdles last term and landed a Killarney beginners contest on second chase start last month. Likely to improve once again and worth considering.
Forecasts
Dinons (4/5), Victoria Bay (4/1), Cooldine Bog (9/2), Or Jaune De Somoza (13/2), Steelambition (25/1)
Hard to get away from the chances of DINONS given his progress over hurdles last term and with a Novice chase win already on the board. The Gordon Elliott-trained six-year-old can win his second chase at the expense of another improving sort, Victoria Bay and Ballinrobe winner, Cooldine Bog.
- Dinons
- Victoria Bay
- Cooldine Bog
