12th Nov 2024 Good 3m 0f 74y |
11st 9lb |
Showed good form on the track two seasons ago; ran his rivals ragged from the front in a maiden hunters' chase at Thurles (only three finishers); fine effort when sixth (second-best of the Irish) in the Foxhunters' at Aintree; missed last year's pointing campaign; has has two runs this term; third behind the smart Winged Leader 16 days ago was encouraging. |

28th Aug 2023 Good 2m 3f 55y |
10st 9lb |
Winning pointer but a longstanding maiden under rules (0-24 hurdles, 0-9 chasing); overall profile strikes a note of caution but a breakthrough is not out of the question; the outcome could hinge on his ability to reverse Tramore form with Brehon Star who beat him quite handily there; 6lb better off and blinkered for the first time. |

Absent 297 days; 0-5 over hurdles but all his Rules runs have come on ground with soft or heavy in the description; was placed in a point-to-point on good and his two winning half-brothers both scored on a sound surface so the better ground here may spark some improvement. |

Veteran with modest strike rate in points (1-19); sprang a 33-1 shock in this race last year; likely to be available at big odds again; out of the money in his last two starts in points. |

Verdict
Handed a walkover at Tyrella last Saturday, DENTO DES OBEAUX beat a subsequent winner at Oldtown last month. He may now put his experience to good use in a likely battle with Happy Victory who made it two from two in points when beating Keenaghan Lass at the Kildare Hunt fixture at Punchestown. Carrig Wells looks capable of reaching the money. [Alan Sweetman]
