Navan Race 2 - Ryan's Cleaning Apple's Jade Mares Novice Hurdle (Listed)
POETISA (6) hung and jumped left on debut at Punchestown. Will be more suited by this assignment providing second start for Willie Mullins. Was expected to win on debut for this yard so could be going very close. APPLES JANE (1) is the first foal out of Apples Jade and she finally got off the mark with hurdles ten days ago. Open to improvement and rates highly. ZANOOSH (8) has done little wrong of late. She arrives bidding for a hat-trick. Up in grade however well worth her place at this level. SOPELANA (9) managed to keep busy as a juvenile and gets weight from her rivals. Doesn't need to find much improvement on ratings. Player.

Recent form hard to fault. Last to post a big 6 len win. Thurles on January 29 over 4023m on heavy track defeating Gaelic Des Chastys with 76kg at $8.50 in a hurdle.

Back in form and can go on with it now.

Racing second-up. Showed plenty of promise winning at debut as favourite; came from midfield and won by a neck Cheltenham on April 17 over 3419m defeating Noble Grace with 67kg at $21. Went for a break before returning finished second of 10 starters at Punchestown on January 12 over 3922m, 5 len behind Ill Raise A Glass carrying 73kg at $1.60. In the very best hands and holds a winning chance with improvement to come.

Last outing won by 0.5 len Fairyhouse on January 15 over 4023m slow going defeating Noemie De La Vis carrying 73kg at $29 in a hurdle. Start before finished sixth of 14 runners at Limerick on December 26 over 3218m, on rain affected going; 13 len behind Never Late with 71.5kg at $15. Certainly worth including.

Useful type. Last start won by 2.25 len Punchestown on January 26 over 3218m in the wet defeating Bibe Mus carrying 70kg at $9 in a hurdle. Run before finished eighth of 12 starters at Limerick in the LR on December 29 over 3218m, 23 len behind Its Bilbo with 63.5kg at $34. Sure to improve again. Only needs to jump well to be right in the finish.
