WTW Willis 3-Y-O Maiden Hurdle

Second foal; dam unplaced 7f-1m2f (RPR 62), half-sister to 1m winner Legal Thriller, from the family of 1m 2yo Group 1 winner Loch Garman; tongue-tie on for debut and likely to improve for this.

Flat maiden whose form was hit and miss in that sphere; improved plenty on second hurdle start when just denied at Gowran last week; should be a big player with more progress likely.

Badly regressive on the Flat and needs to reverse that decline in a major way tackling hurdles.

Showed a glimpse of ability on Flat debut last year but has develped an aversion to stalls since; solid all three hurdle runs but was 4l behind Bridezilla at Ballinrobe last time so has some work to do on the same terms.

Flat 2yo maiden winner on sole start last year but didn't progress as hoped this term, although he faced some stiff tasks; likely to be well-prepared from this top yard so respected on hurdle bow.
