FormscanBy Michael Graham - LUREKA DU NOYER (1) made quite an impression with an emphatic success on his Irish debut at Limerick. He had plenty of experience in France and well backed to deliver. Although all of his form is on rain-softened going, good ground isn't a negative for progeny of his sire, so he should cope with these conditions. Gordon Elliott fires two darts at this rated novice hurdle with Jack Kennedy on Manoir De Mirande who made all in Sligo this month, while Ardeen Joy enjoyed herself with a wide-margin success in a mares' maiden hurdle at Bellewstown. Crystabel got off the mark on the same card in Sligo and adds further spice to the mix.
