Punchestown Race 3 - Irish Stallion Farms Ebf Fillies Academy Hurdle
SILK'S LEGACY (6) is out of a mare who won a juvenile handicap hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival. She has not produced any notable winners but this filly is with a top outfit. Fancied to make a winning start. SMOKIN ACES (7) looks a notable contender because of who her trainer is. There is form in her pedigree over obstacles and she could be anything. CHOIR GIRL (2) is a full sister to a Grade 1 placed novice hurdler and her dam won two races hurdling. Trainer has made a strong start to the new season. DESTINEDFORHISTORY (3) fell when in contention tackling a similar race to this at Cork in October. Half-sister to a smart English chaser.

Three-year-old filly (Walk In The Park - Catcheragain) making her debut. Tough to line up and betting is likely to provide the best guide.

Three-year-old filly (Galiway - Anoush) making her debut. Not seen on the track yet so hard to assess. Pay to watch the market moves closely.

First race starter by Coulsty out of Breath Of Fire. Makes her debut here in what looks a tricky race for her. Not seen on the track yet so hard to assess. Will be better for the outing and tempted to give her this.

Jumped well in the market at debut, finished third of 7 starters at Cork on October 11 over 3520m, 19 len behind Plumton Queen carrying 67.5kg at $4.50. Has upside. Better for the run and worth including.
