Book Your Fairyhouse Easter Hospitality Package Now Maiden Hurdle

Fair maiden on Flat in France for Graffard before making hurdling/stable debut after 5 months off when fifth of 12 in maiden hurdle at Thurles (12/1) 18 days ago, in touch but outpaced approaching 2 out and not fluent there. He's in excellent hands and can do better for that experience.

Fair maiden on the Flat. Seventh of 15 in maiden hurdle at Punchestown (50/1) 35 days ago when failing to repeat his Fairyhouse hurdle debut effort as he raced freely and weakened after 2 out. Could be one for handicaps.

Fair but temperamental maiden on the Flat for Donnacha O'Brien. Produced a laboured effort (following 3 months off) when ninth of 13 in juvenile hurdle (20/1) at Punchestown (16.5f, good to soft) on NH debut 47 days ago. The pick of Jack Kennedy but likely a longer-term project for Elliott yard.

Latrobe gelding. Half-brother to 2 winners, including French hurdle winner/chaser Jocasta (17f-2½m winner, by Pour Moi). Dam, placed on Flat in Germany, sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 23f) Jaleo. Betting can guide with yard triply represented.

Second on three consecutive starts since joining from Hugo Merienne. Second of 19 in maiden hurdle at Leopardstown (11/1) 51 days ago, led well inside final furlong but found one too good close home. This looks easier and he can go one better with first-time hood applied.

€40,000 foal. Order Of St George filly who has no shortage of stamina in her pedigree and is likely to need more time/distance.

Once raced filly (closely related to useful hurdler/chaser) who finished fifth of 14 in conditions hurdle at Naas 63 days ago, making headway out wide before plugging on. This run should reveal more but he's likely one for the longer-term.

Has struggled in hurdle starts since showing a bit on hurdling debut at this course. Pulled up in 11-runner maiden hurdle at Limerick (150/1) 6 days ago, doing no better back down in grade. Little appeal this side of handicaps.
