Sligo Race 2 - Ct Electrical Mdn Hurdle
RETURNING OFFICER (5) finished no better than midfield in three national hunt flat races. Finds a modest contest for his jumping debut with Jack Kennedy taking over in the saddle. Leading chance. BOO RADLEY (2) profiles similarly. Disappointing favourite running 10L fifth when last seen in October and now goes hurdling. Newly applied hood could benefit. BROTHER HOLLIE (8) just about ran a career best when eighth in a handicap at Kilbeggan (3800m) seven weeks ago. This is easier so could contend. HEY SIR (4) emerged through the pointing field while finished seventh in a chase at Wexford (3900m) a week ago. Each way possibilities.

He is resuming after a nine months break. Finished off last campaign 7 of 9 runners at this track October 24 over 4023m, 44 len behind Insouciant Dallier carrying 71kg at $67. First ever start ran 10 of 14 starters at Kilbeggan September 5 over 3218m, 61 len behind Nelson Muntz carrying 72kg at $81. Would need to be at best to feature.

Third-up today. Resuming finished fifth of 11 starters at Kilbeggan on May 15 over 3721m, 7 len behind Little Ginger with 76kg at $7. Second-up finished seventh of 18 starters at Punchestown on June 6 over 3319m, 12 len behind Dee Bee Zed carrying 76kg at $5.50. Fitter now and making headway every start. Ideally placed this time around.

Resuming. Finished off last preparation 16 of 17 starters at Gowran Park April 9 over 1911m, slow track; 85 len behind Purple Moon carrying 59kg at $251. When resuming last campaign didn't finish the race at Navan February 8 over 3218m. May be suited by the longer distance but making up the numbers on recent form.

Raced twice to date. At very long odds at debut, finished 12th of 19 runners at Down Royal on May 4 over 3520m, 45 len behind Berto Ramirez with 66kg at $67. Last start finished sixth of 14 runners at Kilbeggan on May 31 over 3822m, 25 len behind Mento carrying 72kg at $126. Can win without surprising.
