FormscanBy Gary Carson - SUNSET BOULEVARD is obviously one of the lesser lights in Closutton but has shown enough to give him the winning of one of these ‘unplaced’ maiden hurdles. The Wings Of Eagles gelding didn’t run too badly when fifth in a Bellewstown bumper last month and going a bit further over a jump now may help him. Willie Mullins also runs two others in the race. On Cloud Wine was very green early on at Killarney and may be capable of better. The Gordon Elliott-trained Yarraman Makarrata was mid-division in handicap company last time and has to be considered in this. If he runs near his mark of 100 he’ll play a big part.
