Formscan By Gary Carson - This looks a match on paper and MOZOLTOV is a fascinating debutant. He was a classy bumper performer, winning twice and finishing second to a couple of top notch rivals. His final run was when third behind Champagne Fever in the Grade One contest at Punchestown and he could develop into a leading novice if transferring that talent to jumps. Sizing Gold has bumped into a couple of smart sorts on his two hurdles starts and may just have to play second fiddle to another. He was no match for the exciting Don Cossack at Navan last month but his hurdling experience is a big plus and he could make the selection work on his jumping debut. Clara Bel La was wayward on her jumping debut at Clonmel but ran much better at Cork a few days later. She looks good enough to win a maiden hurdle but this looks a very stiff task and a place may be the best she can hope for here.

A hurdle race for five yrs old and upwards, maidens at starting
