Punchestown
Fri 1st May

Formscan By John O'Riordan - Champion Hurdle winner LOSSIEMOUTH can maintain her unbeaten record at this track. Having landed the Champion Four Year Old Hurdle three seasons ago, the Willie Mullins trained grey returned to take the Mares Champion Hurdle the following year. An emphatic winner of the Morgiana Hurdle here on her reappearance, the seven-year-old clearly has a liking for this venue. Relatively fresh for this stage of the season, it will be a major surprise if she fails to add a fourth course win. County Hurdle winner Wilful only has a few pounds to find with the rest of the runners and, should be suited to racing prominently in a small field. William Munny is interesting if ready after a long absence.
