11/4

Fairly useful Flat winner in France. Good efforts over hurdles the last twice, third of 18 at this course (15.7f, heavy) 13 days ago. Should find a race in this sphere.

Forecasts

Druid's Altar (13/8), Autumn Evening (2/1), Zoffanien (11/4), Awkwafina (7/1), Sideshift (8/1), Freds Honour (200/1)

This looks weaker than the race the trio of previous hurdles winners here ran in at Fairyhouse last month and DRUID'S ALTAR is fancied to confirm that form and come out on top from Autumn Evening. Zoffanien also has claims.
