    Race Analysis

    SELMA DE VARY (19) represents leading connections. The filly looks a smart prospect having won a 2m1f hurdle at Auteuil (France) last November before a 4. 5L second attempting the 2m G1 Spring Juvenile Hurdle at Leopardstown. Leading contender. Stablemate PROACTIF (15) caught the eye on Irish debut scoring by 2. 75L a 2m hurdle at Fairyhouse following a success at Auteuil. Big claims. French hurdle winner MAESTRO CONTI (9) arrives unbeaten after two victories for the Skelton yard including a 2L win in the course and distance G2 Finesse Juvenile Novices' Hurdle six weeks back. Ticks plenty of boxes. MACHO MAN (8) is another previous Auteuil winner who was a smart runner-up behind the second mentioned at Fairyhouse. Interesting.
