Maiden Stakes | Hurdle | 2m 3f
Going: Soft to heavy

BURNING ABILITY's debut fifth has worked out well and he looks a likely improver back over hurdles following a couple of encouraging placed efforts in bumpers. He gets the vote. Two Pair remains one to be interested in given her promising hurdle debut, while Raise You Up showed much more on hurdles bow and looks sure to give another good account.

Runner-up sole outing in points and well held on bumper debut. Suited by greater test of stamina when second of 20 in novice hurdle (50/1) at Naas (19f, heavy) on hurdles bow 14 days ago, no match for winner. Should give another good account.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNaas2m 3fSoft to HeavyHurdle2/20Punchestown2m 160ySoft to HeavyBumper4/8- 4Burning AbilityJ: G. B.

Isn't bred to be much but finished fifth in solid 2m maiden on hurdle debut and has placed in both bumper starts since, shaping as if in need of more of a test when third at Naas (16f, heavy) 14 days ago. Makes appeal now back hurdling over a longer trip.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNaas2mHeavy (Soft to Heavy in places)Bumper3/15Galway2m 90yYielding (Good to Yielding in places)Bumper2/8Listowel2mGood to YieldingHurdle5/11- 9Two PairJ: Sean FlanaganT: Paul Nolan, Ireland64-25Age 53/17/210/3

Made an encouraging debut over hurdles (following 7 months off) when runner-up to fairly useful Carry On Heidi but could only match that form in much more testing conditions when fifth of 16 in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse (20.4f, heavy, 10/3) 38 days ago.

Has hit the frame on multiple occasions in maiden hurdles but couldn't build on the promise of his reappearance when below form eighth of 24 in handicap hurdle at Cork (20f, soft) 22 days ago.

Modest form in bumpers but well-backed dropped in trip for second start over hurdles, finishing second of 14 in a mediocre maiden (7/2) at Clonmel (16.5f, heavy) 27 days ago, clear of rest. This is a better race but interesting to see if money comes again stepping back up in distance.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosClonmel2m 110yHeavyHurdle2/14Cork2m 4f 100yGood (Good to Yielding in places)Hurdlepu/8Tipperary2m 2fGood to YieldingBumper5/12Cork2m 3fYielding (Yielding to Soft in places)Bumper6/14- 2De Jour En JourJ: P.

Unpromising in points but showed a lot more at a massive price on hurdling debut, weakening when left in well held third in 19-runner novice hurdle at Cork (16.9f, soft, 125/1) 22 days ago. Will need to build on that.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosCork2m 200ySoft to HeavyHurdle3/19- 1AwordinyourearJ: J. P. ShinnickT: Terence O'Brien, IrelandAge 418/114/116/1

€30,000 3-y-o, Poet's Word gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful hurdler/chaser I'm To Blame and bumper winner Miss Austen. Betting should guide on racecourse debut.- 10Naught But NiceJ: Phillip EnrightT: Robert Tyner, IrelandAge 428/128/125/1

€3,000 3-y-o, Maxios filly. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 2¾m) Notarfbad. Yard had good season but cheap purchase is likely a longer-term project, unless betting suggests otherwise.- 8Strange CurrencyJ: B. W. HarveyT: Gearoid O'Loughlin, IrelandAge 533/133/140/1

Didn't trouble the judge in a handful of maiden points and was well held in a Taunton bumper on first start under Rules. Plenty to prove with hood removed on hurdle debut.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosTaunton2m 104yGood to Firm (Good in places)Bumper8/11
