Elite Charboniere (Paul) runs in the 2m 4f handicap hurdle. He was disappointing behind Statuaire at Wexford last time and will need to improve to win this. This is his first run in a handicap and he should handle the step up in trip. He will love the ground and has an each-way chance.
We have Pont Aven (Paul) and Andalusa (Brian Hayes) in the 2m 1f handicap chase. Both will be suited by the ground and trip but this is a competitive handicap and we are more hopeful than confident about their chances.
Never Feel Blue (Patrick) goes for the mares winners bumper over 2m 1f. She was a little disappointing when beaten in soft ground at Punchestown last time after winning impressively on her debut at Kilbeggan. She will like today’s ground and hopefully she might get back on track here.
