Irish Stallion Farms EBF Novice Hurdle

Dual-purpose; 1-5 over hurdles and rated 125; won a 2m4f Clonmel maiden in April (gd-yld); not disgraced in decent race at Punchestown later that month (bad mistake three out); had a sharpener on the Flat last month; has to give weight away here but can go well up in trip.

One of two for yard; point-to-point winner; off the mark at the second attempt in bumpers at Kilbeggan (19.5f, gd-yld) after an encouraging run here on Rules' debut; bred to stay this far but Declan Queally prefers his stablemate.

One of two for yard; 1-8 over hurdles and rated 110; the win came in a 3m Wexford handicap (good) on penultimate off 98; beaten over 5l off revised mark on latest at Listowel; stamina assured and interesting that his trainer rides but he has a bit to find on the figures.

4yo filly rated 116 after three runs; won a Downpatrick maiden hurdle on penultimate (2m6f, good); good effort conceding weight to progressive sort in a novice back there on latest (21.5f, yld); shaped like further would suit so she should go well up in trip.
