FormscanBy Tom Weekes - VOCARIUM promised a lot in his early days and races from his low weight and €4,000 valuation. A Punchestown festival bumper winner on debut in 2017, he is winless since 2018 but ran well enough in his races last year and might have the ability to win on reappearance. Eclair De Beaufeu, runner-up in the 2020 County Hurdle, was himself smart in the past and is still just an eight year old. He is race-fit but his recent performances, albeit in good races, have been underwhelming and gives 17lb to the selection (including jockey claims). Big Jim Dwyer hasn't run for 426 days and debuts for Emmet Mullins. He was useful in the past, has a low weight and is suited by a sound surface. One Down was capable in the past but has pulled up on his last two starts and never travelled at Ballinrobe on his latest run. Classic Concorde is fairly useful but would prefer further.
A hurdle for five years old and upwards to be claimed for #15,000 or less (Minimum claiming price #4,000)Weights - 12st
