No show in a bumper and 2 maiden hurdles. Probably one for handicaps after this.

In frame both completed starts in points in 2025 and shaped as if more of a long-term prospect when thirteenth of 25 in maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse on hurdles debut 15 days ago.

Raced 9 times in bumpers and produced one of his better efforts in that sphere when fourth at Clonmel last time out in November. Makes hurdles debut.

Timeform
Improved upped to 2½m on second hurdles start when third at Fairyhouse in February. Fell too far out to suggest outcome at Gowran since and now has cheekpieces applied dropping back in trip.
|
Timeform
Successful on second of 2 starts in points (March 2025) but has offered little in 2 maiden hurdles.

Exposed as a fair maiden but he's pretty reliable, again emerging with credit when third of 11 in juvenile hurdle (7/2) at Limerick 20 days ago. This looks a good opportunity.

From the family of Queen Mother Champion Chase winner Put The Kettle On. Dead-heated for third completed start in points and looked one for the longer term in novice hurdle at Clonmel on Rules debut.

Golden Lariat filly. Dam unraced half-sister to smart 21f-25f hurdle/chase winner Inchidaly Rock. Not an obvious debut winner on paper.

Forecasts

Crooked Path (8/11), Le Tatoue Madrik (5/2), Hey Now (4/1), Nameyourgame (6/1), Lamikal D'airy (8/1), Crystal Yeats (14/1), Easy Listening (14/1), Goodmancon (16/1), Youknowthecode (20/1), Zuzukel (25/1), Misery Hill (25/1), Baby Fish (33/1), Whet The Appetite (50/1), Mor Go Leor (50/1), Cornaroya Rocco (80/1), Inchidaly Rua (80/1), Davitts Quay (80/1)

Verdict

CROOKED PATH is consistent enough and looks to have found a race in which he may not need to improve to shed his maiden tag. Hey Now shaped encouragingly at Clonmel and is next on the shortlist ahead of Gavin Cromwell's point winner Lamikal d'Airy.
