Downpatrick Race 5 - Down Royal Corporation Of Horsebreeders Maiden Hunters Chase
EVEREST THE BRAVE (2) was a stylish winner on his second start in a point to point earlier this month. Looks to have enormous potential now switching to the track for hunter chases. Warrants thought as rates the obvious choice. WEST OF IDAHO (7) scored on four of his nine starts in point to points and hails from a stable successful in this sphere. Deserves respect after a comfortable 26L success recently. WEESPOOF (6) brings plenty of experience. Comes to the track for the first time after thirteen point to point outings. Consider. CEBU CITY (1) will need to improve based on his performance here in March.

Last run finished sixth of 13 runners at Dromahane P2p on April 26 over 4828m, 7 len behind Made U Look with 60kg. The start before that; finished 11th of 13 starters at Tramore on April 20 over 4325m, 69 len behind I Walked The Line carrying 70kg at $23. Struggling to recapture his best form and appears tested in this line up.
