FormscanBy Tom Weekes - EPICURIS is a rare Group 1 winning flat performer to venture to a hurdling career and might be able to improve from his Limerick debut hurdles effort and win today. He won the 2014 heavy-ground Criterium de Saint-Cloud before finishing fifth to Golden Horn in the 2015 Derby and clearly once possessed a big engine. He was heavily supported to win on debut at Limerick and while he disappointed on the day, he looked as though his jumping would improve with experience and, since then, the form of that race (in which he shouldered joint top-weight) has worked out very well with the second, third and fourth all winning subsequently. Main danger is Cartwright who was himself smart on the flat and ran with promise on hurdles debut at Gowran. Rated in the mid 90s on the flat, he too should benefit from his initial hurdles debut run but he may find the selection too strong if EPICURIS does improve from his own hurdles debut. Cepalo Delafayette looks likely to win races, having won his point-to-point in December and has since joined his new connections having been picked up for 28,000GBP in January. He drops to two miles today and while he has place claims, could be best watched here.
