FormscanBy Alan Magee - PURE SIRLOIN carries the same colours as illustrious stablemate Flooring Porter and recent evidence suggests he’s also well suited by a test of stamina. The selection handled soft ground when successful at Navan and was putting in his best work at the finish upped to this trip when third to Wa Wa at Leopardstown earlier this month. Hardy Bloke looks a serious threat on his third to Perceval Legallois in a valuable three-mile handicap at the Dublin Racing Festival, while Dr Val is also proven over the trip having won at Punchestown. Jumping Jet easily won a Gowran bumper on testing ground last spring and opening her account over hurdles when keeping on well to beat Emily Roebling (declared in the previous race) over 2m4f at Leopardstown.
