Punchestown Race 3 - Mongey Communications La Touche Cup Cross Country Chase

After managing a 2023 Grand National second VANILLIER (2) arrives in strong form winning by 18L a cross-country event here over 5000m prior to a Cheltenham Festival (UK) third. Finished fourteenth in the Grand National at Aintree this year and is proven over this course. Leading contender. THE GOFFER (13) recorded a smart fourth behind the top pick in the 5800m cross-country chase at the Cheltenham Festival before a solid national course third at Aintree tackling the 4200m Topham. Every chance. STEALTHY TOM (11) was a close runner-up in this event two years ago. Holds claims. Recent Fairyhouse winner READ TO RETURN (1) looks interesting.

Last to post a big 4 len win. Fairyhouse on April 22 over 4224m slow going defeating Vaureal carrying 63kg at $8.50 in a steeplechase. Race before didn't finish the race at Limerick on April 10 over 3922m. Rates well. Hard to follow but best figures sound and worth including here.

Last run finished 14th of 34 runners at Aintree Grand National on April 5 over 6940m, 79 len behind Nick Rockett with 66kg at $13. The start before that; finished third of 16 starters at Cheltenham on March 12 over 5884m, 8 len behind Stumptown with 70kg at $8.50. Continues to improve. Only needs to jump well to be right in the finish.

Useful type. Resumes off a 50 day letup. Last outing pulled up at Cheltenham on March 12 over 5884m. Race before finished fourth of 7 runners at Navan in the G2 Boyne Hurdle on February 9 over 4425m, 13 len behind Maxxum carrying 71kg at $34. Worth another chance and he is likely to measure up.

Second-up today. First-up after three months didn't finish the race at Fairyhouse in the G3 on April 21 over 5833m. Previously second-up finished fourth of 7 starters at this track in the G3 on October 16 over 4626m, 10 len behind French Dynamite with 70kg at $19. Looks a key chance on fresh run and expected to feature.

Having second run back today. First-up after three months finished fifth of 15 starters at Downpatrick on March 30 over 5733m, 16 len behind Dunboyne with 63kg at $5.50. Previously second-up didn't finish the race at Listowel on September 25 over 4828m. Can't see him turning things around enough today.

Useful gelding. Last run finished third of 30 starters at Aintree on April 4 over 4241m, 8 len behind Gentleman De Mee carrying 66.5kg at $15. Before that finished fourth of 16 starters at Cheltenham on March 12 over 5884m, 9 len behind Stumptown with 66kg at $7. Sure to improve again. Should run well again.
