Punchestown Race 1 - Concept Colours Rated Novice Chase

RATH GAUL BOY (6) represents a top yard. Showed potential last season including a 2L success in a 3200m novices hurdle at Ffos Las (UK) two runs back. Respect on chase debut. WATERFORD WHISPERS (7) indicated promise two outings ago when 9L runner-up in a 4200m beginners chase at Navan. Drops sharply back in grade. Big chance. SPRINGT DE LA MARE (4) found success last month by 1.75L attempting a 3200m Fairyhouse beginners chase. Makes for appeal. RELEASE THE BEAST (3) scored by 6L over 3600m at Limerick. Holds claims.
