FormscanBy Alan Magee - JADE DE GRUGY was top class over hurdles winning twice at Grade 1 level including at Punchestown last May and has performed with credit since sent over fences this season. The daughter of Doctor Dino has come up against some smart mares and put in an improved round of jumping when runner-up to The Big Westerner over an extended 2m6f at the Limerick Christmas meeting. Tareze won twice over hurdles including a Listed race at Navan and the point-to-point winner had Stormalong and Femme Magnifique both behind when runner-up to better fancied stablemate July Flower over fences at Limerick. Ad Caelum is another to consider for minor honours.
