View all races Result Odds Compare

Formscan By Alan Magee - HEAD FOR HOME showed promise when runner-up to Pourquoi Poi in a 20-runner 2m4f handicap at Punchestown last October and wasn’t disgraced the following month at Tramore. The selection is without a run since, but the yard has been in better form of late and he’s bred to appreciate this longer trip. Cozone impressed when beating Coppola by over seven lengths at Downpatrick a fortnight ago and may confirm those placings on these revised terms, while others to consider include Duce Bigalow and the Cian Collins-trained pair Kellys Corner and Wakey Wakey Man.

Quotes

Quotes on Cozone (GB)

Cozone hadn't run in a year and had kind of lost his form. He's hit and miss, but had a good break and was in good form lately. We knew he was fit, he ran in a schooling race there recently and went well. We'll keep tipping away with him. I have 14 or 15 in training for the summer and we'll have a few ready to run in the next three or four weeks.
