Clonmel Race 1 - Irish Stallion Farms Ebf Maiden Hurdle
Willie Mullins finds a good opportunity after two pleasing efforts for ARCADIAN EMPEROR (1) who may get off the mark. Well supported last time at Naas and could prove hard to beat. Second runner for Willie Mullins is KIELY'S PLACE (6). Owned and ridden by Patrick Mullins while won a point to point a year ago. Likely to progress for the outing. SPECULATEUR (10) continues to improve with every start. Could be of more interest when switching to handicaps. GAINSVILLE (4) managed to place in a number of recent point to point starts. Now joins the Henry De Bromhead stable so therefore warrants respect.

Five-year-old gelding who is first race starter by Wings Of Eagles out of Siba De La Pampa. Making race debut here. Will be better for the outing and tempted to give him this.

Racing well. Comes off a 39 day let-up. Last run finished second of 10 runners at Ballycrystal P2p on January 18 over 4828m, on slow going 2.5 len behind Got The Memo with 61kg. The run before finished third in a small field at Lingstown P2p on November 23 over 4828m, slow track; 24 len behind Doujadou with 61kg. Sure to improve again. Right in the mix if he is at his best.

Second-up today. Freshened for 40 days. Last run finished fifth of 12 runners at Navan on January 17 over 4425m, 9 len behind Timesareachanging carrying 75.5kg at $23. At only start last preparation finished sixth of 12 runners at this track on November 6 over 3922m, slow track; 21 len behind Kovanis with 71.5kg at $19. Best form stacks up nicely so worth another try.
