Wings of Eagles gelding. Dam (h141) 2m-19f hurdle winner (stayed 3m), also winner up to 2¼m on Flat. Held back by inexperience when fifth of 6 in bumper at Punchestown (16.9f, soft) on NH debut 74 days ago. Should progress.

Attracted support and showed plenty to work on when fourth of 18 in bumper at Listowel (16f, good to soft) on debut in September. That form has worked out well and he's open to improvement.

Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. Good second on Gowran hurdle debut but was too free switched to a bumper when last of 10 at Navan (16.2f, heavy) 80 days ago.

Forecasts

Barnpark (5/2), Thinkitdontjinxit (3/1), Greenhills Of Cork (10/3), Leonard Vallis (10/1), Tinto De Verano (10/1), Drombane (11/1), Long Goodbye (12/1), Bravewave (16/1), O'callaghan Can (18/1), Lucky Vick (33/1), Yanure (50/1), No Time To Think (50/1), Dlightofdsun (200/1)

Verdict

GREENHILLS OF CORK produced a promising first effort when fourth in a big-field bumper at Listowel in September, form which has worked out well, so he's taken to strike at the second time of asking with improvement on the cards. Thinkitdontjinxit is a most interesting Rules newcomer having been purchased for £185,000 following an easy victory in points, while Drombane looks another likely improver.
