LEOPARDSTOWN
1.10 – ARDHILL
GOODFELLOW ANALYSIS: The chances of ARDHILL rely on a non runner given he is first reserve, but well handicapped and well-supported horses have a habit of sneaking into this type of race and, if he has bounced out of his Ascot outing in the same form, the six-year-old could take some beating.
The blinkers worked the oracle 10 days ago and if they have a similar result second time round he could be tough to beat. Future Regem is going from strength to strength and should appreciate the trip while Maze Runner won over c&d in February and should strip fitter for his first run back.
1.45 – Klassical Dream
GOODFELLOW ANALYSIS: Klassical Dream has won twice following long absences so, with his yard in very good form, he shouldn’t lack for fitness of match sharpness.
He is 2-3 at this venue and landed a sizeable gamble on his first try at 3m at the Punchestown festival in the spring so there should be more to come. Last year’s winner Flooring Porter would arguably have won on his Navan comeback but for falling two out and looks a threat, while Sire Du Berlais, runner-up to Flooring Porter in the Stayers’ Hurdle, is another to consider returning to 3m.
2.20 – A PLUS TARD
2.55 – GALOPIN DES CHAMPS
GOODFELLOW ANALYSIS: Galopin des Champs looked like he would make a formidable novice chaser when winning over hurdles at Cheltenham and Punchestown last spring and he boasts the opportunity to vindicate that view on his chasing debut here.
Not that this will be an easy introduction as Fury Road and Blue Sari set a decent standard to exceed, but the Mullins-trained five-year-old boasts the potential to be very smart at his new discipline. The first-time cheekpieces could sharpen up Fury Road who chased home Beacon Edge in a Fairyhouse Grade One last time.
