FormscanBy Michael Graham - STARLIGHT ROSE could be worth a bet on hurdling debut. She switched to Thomas Dowling and stayed on strongly to win over an extended 1m4f at Down Royal last month, Afterwards, Dowling commented that anything she did on the Flat would be a bonus to what she will do over a hurdle. Figaruso ran a stormer in second at 33/1 in Killarney. He pecked at the last which did him no favours as he went down by a length and a half. He was some 18 lengths clear of the third home, Mr Globalist, who comes back for more. Gordon Elliott takes the wraps off Calico who is related to a double-hurdle winner and will certainly be well schooled. Charlie Luciano unseated on his sole start over hurdles but, since then, he has finished second in a staying Flat handicap. He can do better. Frankel gelding Surac should be checked for market strength ahead of his first crack at flights.
