Formscan By Alan Magee - Final Demand and THE YELLOW CLAY look the two to concentrate on with preference for the latter on this surface. Final Demand was very impressive over 2m6f on soft ground at the Dublin Racing Festival but was nearly five lengths behind the selection as the pair filled the places in the 2m5f Turners Novices’ Hurdle won by The New Lion at Cheltenham. Funiculi Funicula put up a career best last time when third to Honesty Policy over 2m4f at Aintree, while Belloccio’s third to Irancy at Fairyhouse has been advertised this week. Tripoli Flyer appears best going right-handed and the Grade 2 winner needs to bounce back after disappointing at Aintree.
A novice hurdle for four years old and upwards
