    Race Analysis

    SOIR DE GARDE (5) represents top connections. Can improve further after a 2m2f hurdle runner-up effort on deep ground at Leopardstown prior to a last flight fall over 2m at Cork three weeks ago. Respect as set to make amends. RISKAWAY (4) brings more experience following a fair fourth in the 2m6f G1 Golden Cygnet Novice Hurdle at Leopardstown before a down field result attempting the 2m5f G1 Baring Bingham Novices Hurdle (2m5f) at the Cheltenham Festival. Expected to bounce back. BUNTING (1) might feature after a ninth of twenty four contesting a 2m5f Premier Handicap Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival. Warrants a market check. BEGORRA MAN (6) enhanced a promising profile when 2. 75L second in a 2m Navan maiden hurdle. Holds claims.
