Useful hurdler who hasn't kicked on from initial promise over fences, struggling when not fluent 2 out when sixth in a Fairyhouse handicap in January. Still, claims of getting involved in this line up

8/1
Winner in hurdle at Clonmel in December. 5/1, creditable sixth of 14 in novice chase at Clonmel (20f) 24 days ago, seemingly stretched by the longer trip. May do better in this sphere.

Forecasts

El Barra (1/4), Soviet Pimpernel (9/2), Whiskeywealth (8/1), That'll Be The Day (40/1), Hereditary Rule (66/1), Tipping Away (100/1), He Fitz In (125/1)

Verdict

A low-mileage, useful hurdler, EL BARRA has made a bright start over fences, confirming debut promise in this sphere when third behind Saint Sam at Fairyhouse 4 weeks ago, and this looks a good opening for him to get off the mark. Soviet Pimpernal is narrowly preferred to Whiskeywealth for the forecast.

  1. El Barra1/4
  2. Soviet Pimpernel9/2
  3. Whiskeywealth8/1
