Point winner has been soundly beaten in three maiden hurdles but this is a drop in grade and is officially rated 107 so is a major contender.

Homebred easily won a Quakerstown point-to-point last April for Derek O'Connor; towards the top of the market for maiden hurdle debut at this venue (2m3f, soft to heavy), finished down the field; never posed a serious threat at Limerick; looking more like a handicap prospect now.

J: Conor Stone-Walsh

T: Gavin Cromwell

Homebred easily won a Quakerstown point-to-point in April under Derek O'Connor on second start in that discipline; towards the top of the market for maiden hurdle debut at Punchestown (2m3f, soft to heavy) but tailed off; likely capable of better.
