Easy winner of his sole outing in points and made a promising hurdling debut when runner-up at Punchestown in December. Disappointing when tailed off at Navan (20f, heavy) next time, but he's worth another chance following a couple of months off.

Forecasts

Cadoudal Saint (1/1), Killaney King (7/4), Walk Away Harry (6/1), Big Stage (8/1), Freemans Bay (14/1), Graigue Corner (50/1), The Pooka (50/1), West Clare (125/1), Glasgow Dan (125/1), Cappacurry Ealu (150/1), Pharney Soldier (200/1), Kinski (200/1), Oneforbaz (250/1), Play The Knave (250/1)

14:53 Cork - 21 March 2024 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Only a handful of these make any serious appeal and it's KILLANEY KING who gets the nod to build on his debut promise at the second attempt. Cadoudal Saint failed to land the odds in a Limerick bumper over Christmas but warrants considerable respect for the red-hot Willie Mullins yard, with Big Stage and Walk Away Harry another couple fancied to be involved.
