Cork Race 1 - Tote Guarantee, Never Beaten By SP Maiden Hurdle
MAESTRO DES PINS (9) represents notable connections with a leading jockey and trainer combination. Secured a good 0.75L victory on sole career attempt in a jumpers flat race at Lignieres. May gain a double. MANOIR DE MIRANDE (10) is racing consistently producing four consecutive placed efforts including when third in a Bellewstown maiden hurdle providing most recent appearance. Expected to challenge. KARLYNN (7) failed to place in three career outings. Finished fifth previous start in a 4000m Clonmel maiden hurdle. Improvement expected. AROUET (1) cannot be discounted having placed third tackling first jumps race. Something for the Multiples: FEEL LIKE ASH (3)

First-up. Finished off last campaign 4 of 9 runners at Castera-Verduzan November 2 over 2400m, slow track; 2.25 len behind Placid'oo carrying 58kg. When resuming last campaign 3 of 10 starters at Nort-sur-Erdre October 5 over 2500m, 1.75 len behind San Fantasma with 58kg. Unlikely to trouble the top few.

Is third-up today and making a debut in a jumps race. Last start raced on the pace prior to fading finished tenth of 16 starters at Limerick on April 25 over 2414m, 11 len behind Patrick Street carrying 52.5kg at $19 and before that finished 18th of 20 starters at Leopardstown on April 12 over 1609m, 12 len behind Launch Time carrying 56kg at $15. May be suited by the longer distance but wait until she shows something.
