FormscanBy Tom Weekes - STORMY IRELAND has bumped into some top class performers in her career thus far but can complete a hat-trick of recent wins today. She has shown a high level of ability since her Irish debut in December 2017 and has bumped into top class horses Master Dino (top class French horse), Espoir D'Allen, Laurina, Roksana and Benie Des Deiux in her defeats (she did disappoint when finishing sixth at Autueil last June). She may ideally prefer half a mile further but today's race is well within her ability. Mengli Khan was a grade 1 winning novice hurdler in December 2017 but has been hard to win with in recent times and is a quirky type. He was well held when reverting to hurdles at Navan last month and needs to regain his old sparkle to beat the selection. Off You Go is an interesting runner in that he too reverts from fences, having been beaten a long way in a Grade 1 at Limerick over Christmas. He won the last two renewals of the Ladbroke Hurdle and while not entered this year (he has no published rating but may be rated too high for the 0-150 race), he comes here on a retrieval mission and might in any case struggle to beat STORMY IRELAND on best form. Franco De Port needs to show more than at Limerick over Christmas while Sutton Place is bets watched on reappearance from a long layoff. Big Blue makes history twice, in that he is the first Australian trained runner over jumps in Ireland and also represents Ciaron Maher %26 David Eustace's training partnership, which isn't seen in this country. He won his last hurdles start at far-flung Warrnambool in May but was pulled up in the closer to home Christmas Hurdle at Kempton and could struggle here.
