Cork Race 4 - Paddy Power 'How Many Days 'Til Christmas' Irish Ebf Novice Hurdle (Listed)

ROC DINO (1) brings two wins and three placed efforts from five runs under Paul Townend. Managed to keep on when delivering an easy 2L success returning from a short break at Listowel. Climbs in trip and looks an appealing chance. MINELLA EMPEROR (2) made it two from three at the course after a comfortable 12L victory tackling a three-runner affair last month. Key player second-up. THEFLYINGKING (4) failed to justify heavy favouritism running fifth of nineteen at Down Royal during May. Steps up markedly in distance and dangerous to dismiss. SIEGE OF CARTHAGE (3) proved unable to get near the second mentioned last time and looks well held again.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up finished second in a small field at Galway on July 30 over 4123m, 1.3 len behind Midnight Jet with 71.5kg at $3. Second-up favourite; won by 2 len Listowel on September 26 over 4023m defeating Dad Sez with 72kg at $1.60 in a novice hurdle. Fitter now and making headway every start. Looks very hard to beat in this sort of form.

Racing second-up today. First-up after seven to post a big 12 len win. This track on October 11 over 4828m defeating Siege Of Carthage with 68.5kg at $3.30 in a novice hurdle. Previously second-up finished fifth of 7 runners at Killarney on August 23 2025 over 3319m, 27 len behind Galileo Sand carrying 73kg at $15. Can improve on first up performance. Strips fitter and is again a top chance.

Last start finished second in a small field at this track on October 11 over 4828m, 12 len behind Minella Emperor with 74.5kg at $7. Before that finished fifth of 8 runners at Gowran Park on October 3 over 4023m, 45 len behind Sir Allen carrying 75.5kg at $7.50. Has the ability to be in the finish. No surprise to see him back in winner's stall.

Resuming from a lengthy break. Having raced just once last preparation finished fifth of 19 starters at Down Royal on May 4 over 3520m, 9 len behind Berto Ramirez carrying 72kg at $1.70. When resuming last campaign didn't finish the race at Down Royal on October 31 over 4526m. Capable and looks a top-three chance.

First up last campaign finished third of 14 starters at Downpatrick on June 14 over 3822m, 10 len behind In The Trenches with 72kg at $1.80. Tough task ahead.
