Form & Verdict
Cokorico gelding cost 40,000euros as a 3yo; half-brother to five winners inc Gevrey (useful 2m-3m hurdle/chase), Hermitage (French 2m1f-2m5f hurdle/chase) and Dis Donc (French 1m4f/1m5f AQPS Flat and 2m/2m3f hurdle); dam lightly raced maiden; beat sole other finisher 25l in Castletown-Geoghegan point-to-point in April (soft) after which he fetched 250,000euros at Punchestown May Sale; one of two contenders for the Elliott yard, market might indicate preference; was due to run here yesterday.

One of three for yard; bright start over timber, winning a C&D maiden (heavy) and beating Blake by a head in the Royal Bond; limitations seemingly exposed in Grade 1 company on his next three runs but back on song with a Grade 2 win at Fairyhouse last time (left in lead after Blake fell at the last); wouldn't want the track to dry out too much.

Koktail Brut

Proved useful in bumpers but is held by a couple of today's rivals on Punchestown festival running; form over hurdles (kept to 2m) features a narrow success in Grade 2 at Fairyhouse and respectable fourth in steadily run Grade 1 at Leopardstown, sandwiching a Christmas flop that is best forgiven (bled from nose); however, may lack the class needed for this assignment.

Showed ability last season for Pat Doyle and successful return when making all for runaway win at Limerick in November on heavy; switched yards and again made plenty of use of but came up short over C&D at Christmas on better ground, albeit solid run; return to testing conditions should suit but this looks a tougher task again.

Form & Verdict
55,000euros 3yo; second foal; dam showed little, half-sister to Supreme Novices' winner Appreciate It (second in Champion Bumper); narrowly beaten on sole point-to-point last season before underwhelming favourite on bumper debut at Punchestown festival, not getting home under a positive ride; could have benefitted from time off since so significant improvement can't be ruled out.

Ex-Willie Mullins; eye-catching third on stable debut at Ludlow (2m, good to soft), then went close at Wincanton and wasn't disgraced in the always-strong EBF Final at Sandown (2m4f, soft) 20 days ago; provided he accepts the two new forms of headgear he should be hard to beat.

Showed promise earlier in career for Willie Mullins and has shaped well on both starts for current yard, pulling clear with the odds-on favourite at Wincanton (1m7f, soft) in January; promises to be well suited by today's step back up in trip and he's unexposed as he moves in to handicaps.

Didn't last long with Willie Mullins despite showing promise; however, he was quite eyecatching when beaten 13l at Ludlow (2m, good to soft) despite slipping on the final bend; whether he can live with Gaelic Pride is debatable but he's up to winning races.
