Form & Verdict
Impressive Irish point winner in 2022; completed only one of first three hurdling starts but his third at Chepstow (2m3f, soft) in December was quite promising, and he was still going well before falling at third-last flight there last month; still has significant potential.

Left the O'Neills for £23,000 and made a winning start for this yard at Market Rasen in first-time blinkers (2m4f, good); didn't have a lot in hand but only raised 3lb.

Surged in the weights for wins at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft) and Southwell (2m4f, good) last autumn; below par on his last two starts for the O'Neills but he's since joined a bang-in-form stable (for £23,000) and has to be of interest in first-time blinkers after a break.

Went up 19lb for wins at Fontwell (2m3f, good to soft) and Southwell (2m4f, good) last year; beaten at odds-on next time but subsequently fair third on chase debut; back over hurdles after pulling up last time; others look better handicapped.

Form & Verdict
Dual Irish point winner last year and placed on all three hurdling starts for Warren Greatrex; looked unlucky when close second in Sedgefield maiden (2m4f, soft) last month, where an awkward landing at the final flight probably cost him the race; moves up in trip here; good chance.

The winner of two points; 15 defeats under rules split evenly between bumpers, hurdles and chases; has threatened in all those disciplines and should nick a race sooner or later, for all that he's twice been below par since a good run over fences here in January.

Verdict

Broughshane looked good when winning on his Irish point debut two years ago and remains very unexposed under rules but GOLDEN DE COEUR has made a very solid start to his hurdling career and can gain compensation for last month’s unlucky Sedgefield defeat.[Chris Wilson]
