Punchestown Race 1 - Thatprizeguy.co.uk P.p. Hogan Memorial Cross Country Chase

Gordon Elliott maintains a strong record in cross country races. CONFLATED (6) is a classy recruit to this discipline and placed on his two most recent starts in point to points. Now wears cheek pieces and must be respected. THE GOFFER (10) is a regular in these races and the choice of Jack Kennedy. Rates highly. VANILLIER (3) has been fancied for the Grand National previously and retains his ability after a solid third over Christmas. Major player back among this company. FAKIR D'OUDAIRIES (8) proved a wonderful servant to connections and looks an interesting recruit to this discipline. Watch the market.

Useful gelding. Last start finished second of 8 runners at Tyrella P2p on January 24 over 4828m, 6 len behind Carnfunnock with 60kg. The run before finished second of 8 runners at Aghabullogue P2p on January 11 over 4828m, in the wet; 20 len behind Hunters Yarn with 61kg. Sure to improve again. Can get the job done this time.
