Wexford Race 1 - Connolly's RED MILLS Irish EBF Auction Maiden Hurdle
IFALLGOESWELL (1) shaped with significant promise when 9L fifth at Cork last time. That came in a valuable handicap hurdle and this certainly looks easier. Leading contender eased in grade. DUNLEER CRYSTAL (8) stayed on well for a 9L third at Naas last time. Extra trip here will suit and yard remain in good form. Key player. DE JOUR EN JOUR (2) placed on two of three starts this campaign. Clearly providing great form at present and will relish these conditions. Keep safe. ALL NIGHT REVIVAL (7) is promising. New journey could easily unlock further progression and he rates a genuine threat to all.
