Making his 40th appearance and still a maiden; some positive signs this year, both on Flat and over hurdles; however, hard to have faith at this stage; pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse last Friday. |

Didn't appear to see out 2m7f at Thurles (behind Magic Conqueror) but still ran well and again when coming from off the pace under a big weight at Fairyhouse (2m4f, heavy); now 0-17 but the tongue-tie is helping and her turn looks near. |

Verdict
Not a lot of these make much appeal, though there could be some ‘sleepers’ amongst the many making their handicap debuts. C’EST RIEN has been running consistently in defeat, including over C&D last time and should give her running, so is a tentative selection. Breagagh and Derby De Thaix ran well last time, so are at least in some sort of form. [Tyrone Molloy]
