Race Tip
BLEU D'ENFER (2) returns to hurdles after finishing second in a 1m7 1/2f novice chase at Punchestown last start. The one to beat based on the pick of last season’s hurdling form. PURSE PRICE (8) was running a good race when unseating her rider late at Clonmel last month. Could be thereabouts. THE OTHER MOZZIE (1) displayed ability in point-to-points and jumpers flat races and warrants a second look on hurdling debut. Thurles maiden hurdle second SHOOT CHAMPAGNE (7) ran below her best at Gowran in latest. May challenge for a place.
