6/1

Promising type. Tenth of 20 in novice hurdle (16/5) at Naas (19f, heavy) 50 days ago, pulling hard. Hood refitted and this bumper winner remains capable of better in this sphere.

150/1

Kingston Hill gelding. Brother to bumper winner Hear Me Out and half-brother to a winner on Flat. Dam ran twice on Flat. Doesn't have the look of a probable first-time-out winner on paper.

50/1

€15,000 3-y-o, Court Cave gelding. Dam, won sole start in bumpers, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 19f) Court Royale. Worth a peek in the betting.

Form:

Harwa⁹³

10/3

Promising type. Second of 12 in juvenile hurdle at Angers (16.9f, soft, 39/10) 93 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Marcel Rolland. Open to progress for connections and he merits respect.

150/1

Fair Flat winner. 12/1 and blinkered for 1st time, fourth of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (8f). Off 10 months ahead of this hurdles/yard debut.

Forecasts

Springhill Warrior (2/5), Harwa (10/3), Lincoln Du Seuil (6/1), Grandy Lane (8/1), Royal Soldier (50/1), Double Power (50/1), Clonbury Court (50/1), Diamond Kal (80/1), Koeur A Prendre (80/1), Go Frankie (80/1), Colin's Friend (100/1), Mayor Of Maghera (150/1), Home By The Sea (150/1), The Weeping Ash (150/1), Whatafoolbelieves (200/1)

The form of SPRINGHILL WARRIOR's second to the progressive I Started A Joke in a big-field at Punchestown maiden last month was given a timely boost when the winner found just one too strong in a major Leopardstown handicap on Sunday. Gordon Elliott's charge is taken to make it third time lucky, with French import Harwa the main danger ahead of Lincoln Du Seuil. Also shortlisted is Grandy Lane.
