Impaire Et Passe (Paul) runs in the Moscow Flyer Novice Hurdle over 2 miles. He was very impressive when winning his maiden at Naas on his hurdling debut albeit the two hurdles in the straight were omitted. This is a big step up in grade but he looks like he could be up to the task.
Tactical Move (Paul) goes for division one of the 2 mile maiden hurdle. Training problems have kept him off the track since he won a bumper at Clonmel over three years ago. He is a huge horse who will be suited by this galloping track and we are hoping he will come home safe after such a long absence.
Bialystok (Paul) has his first run for us in division two. He is a really nice horse who won and was placed on the flat in France. He shows ability at home but he had a small problem in the Autumn which kept him off the track until now. We are looking forward to seeing how he gets on today.
We run two in the very competitive novice chase over 2m 3f. Glengouly (Jack Foley) won a beginners chase at Thurles last month and the form of that race has been boosted since. This trip and testing ground will suit. His stamina will come into play particularly if there is a fast gallop in this ground. Ha D’or (Paul) settled and jumped better than he did over hurdles when winning a novice chase at Fairyhouse last month. He should improve from that run and won’t be far away.
