9/2
2/1, suited by the step in trip when winning 13-runner novice hurdle at this course (20f, heavy) 49 days ago, drawing clear from 3 out and just kept up to work. Likely to improve.

7/2
Made a successful hurdling bow at Navan and shaped better than the bare result when third of 5 in minor event hurdle at Limerick (20f, heavy, 10/3) 40 days ago, bad mistake last. May well do better.

Promising sort. 2 wins from 3 runs this season. 2/1, career best when winning 15-runner novice hurdle at Naas (15.8f, heavy) on hurdles bow 22 days ago, finding extra. Up in trip. Open to improvement.

9/1
Much improved when winning 14-runner novice hurdle (10/1) at Fairyhouse (18.5f, heavy) 19 days ago, well suited by the emphasis on stamina. Expected to be bang there once again.

On Eagles Wings (11/10), Clondaw Secret (7/2), Battle Of Actium (9/2), Debuchet (13/2), La Chanteuse (9/1), The Miser (150/1)

14:25 Down Royal - 4 February 2021 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

CLONDAW SECRET, On Eagles Wings and La Chanteuse are all open to improvement and may well be the trio to concentrate on. The first-named probably would've maintained his unbeaten record but for a bad mistake at the final flight at Limerick on Boxing Day and he earns the vote. On Eagles Wings did the job well on his hurdling debut last time, but La Chanteuse is second choice.

  1. CLONDAW SECRET (IRE)
  2. LA CHANTEUSE (IRE)
  3. ON EAGLES WINGS (IRE)
