Analifet heads Leopardstown juvenile entries Potentially top-class mare Analifet is in line to take another step up the ladder after spearheading seven entries for the Knight Frank Juvenile Hurdle at Leopardstown on December 26. The Willie Mullins-trained French import is unbeaten in her two starts for the champion trainer and could hardly have been more impressive in trotting up in Grade Three company at Fairyhouse at the beginning of this month. She won a maiden in similar fashion at Punchestown in November, and is likely to be a warm order to strengthen her claims for the big festivals in the spring. Closutton ace Mullins has two other possibles in Gitane Du Berlais, who travelled over to Aintree for victory last time out, and Noble Inn. Gordon Elliott is double-handed, with potential dark horse Arzembouy Premier who has yet to run in Ireland, and Clarcam. Guitar Pete has already been Grade Two-placed for Dessie Hughes having chased home Royal Irish Hussar at Cheltenham, while the entries are completed by the Charles O'Brien-trained Henry Higgins, a handicap winner on the Flat but so far unraced over hurdles.
