Down Royal

Hurdle2m1f

Having yet to finish outside the frame in 4 starts over hurdles, LOS BLANCO gets the vote to open his account returned to maiden company with a first-time tongue tie reached for. He can get the better of fellow 6-y-o Champagne Jury, who seemed held back by his inexperience when last seen in the spring but can build on his promising debut in this sphere at the second attempt. Green Angel can edge out All Night Revival for third.

    Verdict
    Winner in bumper at Naas in January. Seemed held back by his inexperience above all second time up over hurdles when eleventh of 15 in minor event at Punchestown (19.3f, good to soft, 7/2) 8 months ago. Yard starting to fire so no surprise to see him feature under a promising conditional.
