Going - Good to Yielding CHANGED to Yielding after Race 3. Raining
View all races Result Odds Compare

Formscan By Mark Nunan - TOUCH THE MOON, rated 90 on the Flat in Britain and a dual winner in Bahrain last winter, had Royal Approval well behind when he was touched off by a useful type on hurdling debut at Navan. He travelled strongly on that occasion and can go one better for a yard that is doing well with its jumpers. Talk The Talk was second in a valuable bumper at Newbury in March and now starts off for Joseph O'Brien. Splendid Fellow showed ability in a point-to-point and has since joined a powerful yard while Starting Fifteen has some strong bumper form and is now hooded for his first start over flights. The 112-rated Louiescall probably has place claims at best. %0A%0A
