We have 5 runners today that make the journey to Punchestown.
KURASSO BLUE is the first of our runners, he makes his second start over fences, he ran a cracker on his first start over fences, hopefully with that experience under his belt and getting weight of all of his rivals, he can go one better today. Jack Kennedy rides.
In the first maiden hurdle of the day AMERICAN JUKEBOX makes his first start over hurdles. He has done really well for a break and fingers crossed he can come into his own over jumps, Jack Kennedy rides.
NEON DIAMOND takes her chance in the feature race of the day, the Listed “Matchbook 50:50 Graduation Series Mares Novice Hurdle” over the 2m 3f trip. She returns from a small break, has plenty of experience to hand, handles testing ground and has a chance of getting some black type today, Jack Kennedy rides.
NEWBROOK DIAMOND lines up in the fifth race of the day the 2m Maiden Hurdle. He finished a brilliant 2nd on his first start for the yard and his debut over hurdles. He does drop back a couple of furlongs today but is well capable of making his presence felt. Jack Kennedy rides.
JIGORO is our final runner of the day, reverting back over hurdles in the 2m “Solo Arte – An Irish Art Gallery At Punchestown Hurdle”. He has been in great form at home, has great form over course and distance and has first time cheek pieces added today, which may bring out a little more from him. Jack Kennedy rides.
