CELTIC DRUID has struck form recently and followed up a promising third at Leopardstown when successfully stepping up in trip at Bellewstown. The Tom McCourt-trained gelding appeared to have a bit in hand when beating better-fancied stablemate Maxwell Smart, with Tassarolo about eight lengths back in fourth, and can score again off his revised mark. Metamorpheus had the reserves Together Aclaim and Slieve Bearnagh both behind when third to Stepdance over a similar trip at Limerick last weekend, while Dolce Far Niente and Chou Chou have both won recently and now step up in distance. |
METAMORPHEUS remains a maiden in this sphere but he is well treated on his best form in both codes and is the selection here. He ran into a well treated progressive rival when placed last time and the easier ground here is no issue. Tassarolo was a beaten favourite on his flat return but he remains unexposed in this sphere and is potentially thrown in judged on his hurdles win. He can challenge along with the in form Dolce Far Niente who went a bit too fast last time but has her stamina to prove up in distance. Of those at bigger prices Ms Messi appeals most as she ran well over a stretching 13f last time and has mileage in her mark on her maiden form now dropped in distance. |

CELTIC DRUID has struck form recently and followed up a promising third at Leopardstown when successfully stepping up in trip at Bellewstown. The Tom McCourt-trained gelding appeared to have a bit in hand when beating better-fancied stablemate Maxwell Smart, with Tassarolo about eight lengths back in fourth, and can score again off his revised mark. Metamorpheus had the reserves Together Aclaim and Slieve Bearnagh both behind when third to Stepdance over a similar trip at Limerick last weekend, while Dolce Far Niente and Chou Chou have both won recently and now step up in distance. |
METAMORPHEUS remains a maiden in this sphere but he is well treated on his best form in both codes and is the selection here. He ran into a well treated progressive rival when placed last time and the easier ground here is no issue. Tassarolo was a beaten favourite on his flat return but he remains unexposed in this sphere and is potentially thrown in judged on his hurdles win. He can challenge along with the in form Dolce Far Niente who went a bit too fast last time but has her stamina to prove up in distance. Of those at bigger prices Ms Messi appeals most as she ran well over a stretching 13f last time and has mileage in her mark on her maiden form now dropped in distance. |
