Wexford Race 4 - Curracloe Beach Mdn Hurdle
DOCTOR ELVIS (2) missed the frame contesting a Fairyhouse novice hurdle two starts back but progressed when a strong second tackling the trip at Cork. Wears first-time blinkers and is poised for a bold bid. YOUNG DORAN (7) was no match for the winner when placing on racecourse debut at Ballinrobe. Attempts a longer journey here and holds plenty of appeal second-up. GLENARY PRINCE (3) made pleasing return from a three-month break running fourth in a Punchestown maiden hurdle last time under Mike O'Connor. In the mix. BENNER WENNER (1) was not disgraced when midfield on Ballinrobe debut and deserves a market check. Something for the Multiples: MAYO SHIROCCO (11)
