Downpatrick

Tomorrow, Hurdle2m1f

The forecast strong pace should suit strong-travelling SILENT DAWN who came within a whisker of breaking his maiden when a close second over C&D 25 days ago and he may go one better under similar tactics. Tir Og showed improved form when making all at Sligo recently and may go well again. Lily's Choice could be interesting if the rain arrives now dropped markedly in trip, while Centaq might have more to offer if this becomes a test of stamina. Rodney Bay and King Bob are worth a market check.

    Verdict
    Fair hurdlers at best but struggled in most recent starts including when well beaten on final start for Joseph Anthony Murray in 8th of 11 in claimer hurdle at Limerick (12/1) 234 days ago. Good record here and market should reveal whether he's expected to bounce back on return/stable debut.

    Has course and distance win and showed good form to win at Ballinrobe in July, but followed a below-par effort with an even worse one when eighth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (25/1) 14 days ago. Cheekpieces removed today and not totally dismissed given course record.

    Best form when fifth of 14 in maiden hurdle at Wexford (200/1) 42 days ago but that remains a standout effort, most recently eighth of 13 in 24f maiden at same course (33/1) 21 days ago. Interesting to see if market hints at improvement now handicapping in first-time cheekpieces.

    Verdict

    Bounced back to form when a head second of 9 in handicap hurdle at this C&D (8/1) 25 days ago, nearly opening account with patient tactics readopted. Could face slower ground here but this should be run to suit and he remains one to be interested in.

    Verdict
    Creditable second of 14 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) in August 2023 but has been campaigned on the Flat of late, well held at Galway 10 days ago. Remains to be seen if he can make more of an impact returned to hurdles.

    Has shown ability in handicap hurdles with a third-place finish on heavy ground. Sixth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (22/1) 42 days ago, shaped better than on belated return but did too much too soon over 24f. Could be interesting if the rain arrives now dropped markedly in trip.
