Roque looks bright prospect Quito De La Roque looked a horse with a future when claiming the novice hurdle at Clonmel in good style. Davy Russell had the gelding at the head of affairs throughout alongside Quadrillon. Colm Murphy's charge got it wrong at the second last and was soon challenged by The Book Thief. The eventual winner found plenty from the last, however, to go on again for a four-length success. "I'll try and find something similar. I would say you won't get ground soft enough or a race long enough for him," said Murphy. "He's a big baby and showed it today. If he improves as much as I think he can he could be a real nice horse. I'm delighted with him. "He's a big raw baby and chasing is his game. He's a half-brother to Kazal and the further he got the better."
