Fair maiden on Flat but never a threat on Ballinrobe hurdles debut 14 days ago.
|
Failed to complete both starts in points and no real impact on hurdles bow at Limerick last month.
|
Given a considerate introduction when seventh of 15 in novice hurdle at Ballinrobe (2¾m, good) on NH debut 15 days ago but is likely to need more time. Hooded for first time.
|
€90,000 3-y-o, Kapgarde gelding. Half-brother to numerous winners, including very smart hurdler/smart chaser Gold Tweet, stays 27f, and French hurdler/chaser Goldkikou. Worth a market check on debut given connections.
|
Promising sort who has made the frame in both starts over hurdles, latterly when third of 5 in novice at Naas (2m, heavy) in November. Hood on first time. Remains open to progress.
|
Point winner who offered something to work on when third of 8 in maiden at Cork (3m, good to soft) on hurdle debut 30 days ago. One of likelier contenders.
|
Promising individual who posted close second of 7 in minor event hurdle at Le Lion-d'Angers (2¼m, good to soft, 62/10) on debut last June. Since joined Willie Mullins and must be of interest here.
|
Showed more than in a couple of bumpers when third in Wexford novice on hurdles bow in March but not in same form at Tramore since. Others more appealing.
|
Fair in bumpers but raced too freely on sole completed start in this sphere at Listowel last month. Improvement required.
|
Placed in points but no real impact on hurdles debut at Punchestown 3 days ago.
|
Fair maiden chaser but not at same level when fifth of 15 in novice at Ballinrobe (2m, good to soft, 50/1) on hurdles bow 14 days ago. Work to do.
|
A point winner at the fifth attempt but not troubled the judge in a couple of bumpers and is likely best watched on hurdles debut.
|
Matched previous form in this sphere when creditable third of 15 in novice hurdle at Ballinrobe (2m, good to soft, 10/1) 14 days ago. Each-way claims.
|
Pulled up sole start in points and finished well held on switch to hurdles at Ballinrobe a fortnight ago.
|
Sent off big odds and shaped as if amiss in novice hurdle at Limerick 12 days ago.
|
Back from 7 months off when creditable second of 15 in novice hurdle at this course (2¼m, good to soft) 28 days ago. Entitled to build on that and is one for the shortlist.

Forecasts
Koliath De Couely (13/8), Lilac Lady (7/2), Hopeful Hero (5/1), Crystabel (5/1), Killowen House (15/2), Goldenkap (14/1), Let's Go La Fichad (16/1), Mc Swagger (33/1), Sampoet (50/1), Alentejo (80/1), Rosenborg (80/1), Commodity Broker (80/1), The Boysofairhill (150/1), Ballyminnion Boy (150/1), Eastwestconnection (150/1), Humble Berkshire (250/1)
KOLIATH DE COUELY only narrowly failed to score on debut in France last summer and likely has more to offer for new connections. He can get off the mark. Lilac Lady and Hopeful Hero head the list of dangers.
- Lilac Lady7/2
- Hopeful Hero5/1
