Formscan By Gary Carson - ZOLPHARINE has really put things together recently and may be able to bag his hat-trick now. The Yeats gelding was a cosy winner back over timber at Tramore a week ago and was given a 10lb hike for that victory. Connections try to offset a chunk of that now with Harry Sexton claiming 7lb off. Oogum Boogum was a winner at Punchestown on his penultimate start and made a bold bid from the front again when third at Wexford nine days ago. He could be a big player again. Where Are You Now was slightly disappointing last time at Punchestown but had been narrowly egged out there on his previous run and is another to consider.

An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards rated 0-100
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each hurdle race won.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on It's Time Again (IRE)

I’d say the (good) ground made an awful difference to her. She ran poorly at Clonmel a couple of times and we said we’d put her away and wait for better ground. She’s a small mare so I told Dillon to keep her out wide as she gets a bit claustrophobic when she’s in around horses.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Oogum Boogum (IRE)

He made a very bad mistake (when pulled up) in Tramore and his race was over, Carl minded him. That’s the way to ride him, just let him gallop away and he keeps going. He’s tough out. He actually ran well in a charity race here last time and was in great old form. We’ll go back over fences now and try and get one over fences.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Zolpharine (IRE)

It wasn’t before time that he got going, he won his maiden hurdle first time,. He had a good run in a bumper here as well, when he was second to one of Willie Mullins’ (Caman Eileen). I don’t know if he’ll run again tomorrow, we’ll see. It might be a bit soon. He’s a grand horse for the summer. He’s a smasher. It took us so long to get him right, he got a fall schooling after he won his maiden hurdle. There was lots of chiropracty. Mark Slevin did a great job, we fired his palate and tidied him up as best we could. He looks progressive now, even though he’s an eight-year-old. If we pulled him out tomorrow he could win again!. He’s way better over fences, he’s tricky over hurdles but he’s putting it together now.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Sallap (IRE)

Willie (Cleary, owner) bred her, so this is job done. She is a tiny little thing, she’s only 15 hands, and I’d say that could have been her day. She had an ok run in Ballinrobe but ran no race the last day in Wexford, so we were clutching at straws today and just rode her to run well. I’d say she enjoyed that ground.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Spellacy's Cross (IRE)

He is very uncomplicated and has a great style of racing as he is very relaxed in himself. We're very lucky John O'Neill got involved in him and we're delighted with him. From an early age, he had been taught how to jump and he has plenty of scope. He is a brother to a good horse Rapid Escape, so is nicely bred. He really takes to fences but his hurdle mark also looks nice, so he can do both.
