Punchestown Race 2 - Connolly's RED MILLS Irish EBF Auction Hurdle Series Final
VITORIO PIEL (3) arrives in strong form with a 6.5L victory in a 3200m heavy ground novice hurdle at Leopardstown preceding a 6L second in the 4800m Listed EBF Novice Handicap Hurdle Series Final at Fairyhouse earlier this month. Ticks plenty of boxes. L' EVANGELISTE (1) bids for a hat-trick after a 1.5L victory attempting a 4000m novice hurdle at Fairyhouse last November. Respect on comeback outing. SIMPLY NATURAL (15) looks progressive after a pair of placings including a 0.75L second tackling a 3200m mares maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse three weeks ago. Makes appeal. GREY JUDE (7) maintains a consistent profile. Placed runner-up last two starts. Thereabouts up in distance.
