Roscommon Race 1 - Garvey's Bar, Ballintubber Mdn Hurdle
RITZ PLAN (13) sets the standard after a 2nd at Naas over 3456m, beaten 2.25L, and earlier 2nd in a Punchestown fillies’ hurdle; resumes but that form reads well. CINATING (10) has solid spring runs, including 3rd at Leopardstown over 3219m and 4th at Cork over 3273m before a Ballinrobe mishap, and looks a key chance with a hood on. MIKE DES MOTTES (4) was 4th at Leopardstown over 3219m, beaten 0.23L, and can bounce back from Killarney. TAKE THE FREE (6) improved to 6th at Cork over 3479m, beaten 7L, and is in the mix.
