Cork Race 1 - Kearney's Coaches Maiden Hurdle
On bare form GENEALOGY (4) is of most interest. Finished 3.75L second behind a Festival runner-up at Ascot two back then contested a conditions hurdle which has worked out very well. Capable of taking this. LYNCHES KNOCK (6) provided a consistent start to his career with a Leopardstown win and three placed efforts in four starts. Blinkers tried here and rates a strong chance. DAWN COMING (2) placed all four hurdle starts. Races on sounder going than experienced to date. Minor money at the least looks achievable. DEEP WARRIOR (3) represents a top yard on debut. Wouldn't have to be too special to figure.

Recent form impressive for this race. Last run finished third of 21 runners at Naas on February 22 over 3118m, on rain affected going; 8 len behind Star Of The Week carrying 70kg at $2.50. Run before finished second of 12 runners at Naas on January 25 over 3218m, on rain affected going; 2 len behind Kai Lung with 73kg at $4.50. Looks very hard to beat.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. Resuming finished eighth of 12 starters at Naas on January 25 over 3218m, on a wet track; 39 len behind Kai Lung with 73kg at $51. Second run from a spell finished eighth of 11 runners at Navan on February 8 over 3218m, on rain affected going; 76 len behind Coyote Spirit carrying 70kg at $41. Fitter but needs to improve sharply.

Facing the starter for the third time today. When unwanted in the market at debut, finished 11th of 12 runners at Naas on February 7 over 3721m, 118 len behind Jalon D'oudairies carrying 70kg at $126. Last start didn't finish the race at Naas on March 4 over 3218m. Find this unsuitable. This looks too hard.
