Going - Good to Yielding. Fine
View all races Result Odds Compare

Formscan By Gary Carson - KARA DE THAIX didn’t get far on her return at Kilbeggan recently but may be worth another chance here. The Jeu St Eloi mare hung badly left there a fortnight ago before being taken out of the race before the fifth flight. She had run well in a decent maiden hurdle when third at Fairyhouse back in January and on that form she’s up to winning a race of this standard. Fool Me Once disappointed on his last outing at Downpatrick but had been runner-up at the same venue before that and would be a big player on previous form. Cosmos D’ainay, a Sligo bumper winner, weakened tamely on his hurdling debut at Tipperary and is better than that run.
