Going - Hurdle/Bumper:: Soft to heavy. Chase: soft, soft to heavy in places. Raining

Formscan By Mark Nunan - Jack Kennedy rode WESTERN WALK for the first time at Navan last month where Jonathan Sweeney’s nine-year-old ran creditably in a Graded contest over fences. Kennedy is again in the plate and his mount, who has run to a decent level in a novice chasing campaign this term, merits plenty of respect on this return to hurdling. If he can reproduce his form in competitive handicaps, he can get the better of Timeless Treaty who has shown useful course form recently and now steps back up in trip. Grand National entries Amirite and Blizzard Of Oz look opposable on recent form. %0A

Quotes on Timeless Treaty (IRE)

He’s a nice horse, he did it well,. He won well in Down Royal when we didn’t really fancy him, we didn’t know much about him. I thought he was gutsy today because he was headed and came back, he was tough. I suppose we’ll probably end up going for a novice at Galway now. I thought that was even a better performance today because he had to do all the donkey work in front, he was headed and then had to come back.

Quotes on Blizzard Of Oz (IRE)

I think the shorter trip was a benefit and he jumped better than he did in Naas. The ground might not be riding as heavy as people anticipated when I see (stablemate) Captain Cody being tapped for toe and that fella going easily at the second last. Captain Cody probably wants a longer trip. I’d imagine both horses will be aimed for the final in Punchestown and they will probably have a run before that.

Quotes

Quotes on Western Walk (IRE)

Since Christmas he’s really relaxed in himself and chilled out. He’s improving all the time and has done it very well. He’s entered in the Grade 1 three-mile (Irish Mirror) Novice Hurdle at the Punchestown Festival so we’ll have a chat with the owners and see. He handled that ground well today and hopefully he’ll be a nice chaser in time. He’s a half-brother to Churchstonewarrior so the family are lucky for me.
