Rule The Wind (Brian Hayes) should go close in the maiden hurdle over 2m 3f. He ran very well at Tipperary last time and that experience will be a huge benefit here. He will handle the ground and we are hoping this is a nice opportunity.
Paul Marvel (Sean O’Keeffe) makes his chasing debut in the 2m 3f beginners chase. This trip might be too short for him but it’s a good opportunity to get experience on nice ground. MacDermott is third reserve so probably won’t get in. He is a real chasing type but he too would prefer a longer trip.
You Oughta Know (Patrick) makes his debut in the bumper. He is related to Pont Alexandre who did well for us a few years ago. He’s a real summer bumper type and we are expecting a good run.
