15:40 Punchestown — Ladbrokes 'Big Daily Boosts On Racing' Maiden Hurdle (Div I) model predictions

Firebrand (GER)

0%

Flat maiden winner; 0-9 over hurdles; best effort over obstacles when beaten 3.75l behind subsequent Grade 1 winner Eachtotheirown at Galway in October; ran to similar level when 5.5l behind Mullaghgloss at Thurles 198 days ago; rated 110 and has experience edge under claimer.

Ludus Magnus (FR)

0%

Couple of fair efforts in bumpers; ran well on hurdles debut when beaten 17.5l by Hey Now at Sligo 25 days ago; shaped as if in need of further so drop in trip not ideal.

Rosie's Wings (IRE)

0%

Decent bumper form and improved a bit on hurdles debut after lay-off to be beaten 1l into third by Figero at Kilbeggan 22 days ago for new stable, running on well; form of that can be questioned but he should step forward for that.

The Weighbridge (IRE)

0%

Placed in one of two points; sent off a huge price in tough opening assignment at Ballinrobe 12 days ago and was beaten 30l into seventh by Daddy Long Legs in conditions hurdle; these are much calmer waters but still needs plenty more.

Evangelic (IRE)

0%

Modest on the Flat in seven starts and didn't show anything in two recent hurdle starts to suggest he's up to winning a maiden.

Finns First

0%

Finished tenth in a pair of maiden hurdles this year and looks one for handicaps.

Lucky Signal (FR)

0%

Ran okay on debut in Leopardstown bumper despite finishing last of eight; being eased when very tired before slipping up 1f out at Killarney 28 days ago; last run a concern and needs to bounce back, but in good hands.

Matcho d'Agrostis (FR)

0%

Was making little impression on both hurdle outings prior to falling; hard to make a case for.

Superficial (FR)

0%

Sole win in eight Flat starts came last time out in 1m4f Roscommon handicap 19 days ago, staying on to beat subsequent winner Obscenity by 2.75l; had two prior hurdle runs at backend of last year and didn't show a huge aptitude but is in better form now and has been gelded; rated 80 on the Flat and could go well.

Bethpage Theatre (IRE)

0%

Fell halfway on hurdles debut at Cork and tailed off ninth at Listowel last time; likely to struggle.

Cailin Deas (IRE)

0%

Useful in bumpers, scoring at tenth attempt at Kilbeggan in August, beating Red Oak by 1.25l; ran to a similar level on hurdles debut at Thurles; returned from break on stable debut to be beaten 8.5l into third by Mr Master Mac at Downpatrick 15 days ago, lack of a recent run telling after going for home early; will improve and drop in trip should suit; each-way chance in first-time hood.

Drumadeise (IRE)

0%

Sent off three-figure price on hurdles debut at Limerick nine days ago and ran accordingly; hard to fancy.

Easter Bonnet (FR)

0%

Half-sister to six winners, including Chart Topper and Pink In The Park for same yard; sent off short odds on bumper debut at this track in October, won cosily by 6.5l; reportedly lost action when pulled up in Listed contest at Navan 202 days ago; should bounce back after a break; form of debut win very questionable but the one to beat on hurdles debut nonetheless; yard has won last three runnings.

Glendaars Crystal (IRE)

0%

Finished seventh in a good maiden hurdle on debut at this track 24 days ago but was beaten out of sight; needs a lot more.

Hardlee Trouble (IRE)

0%

Couldn't land a blow when tailed off on debut over hurdles at Sligo 25 days ago; unlikely to be a threat.

Inver Bay (IRE)

0%

Has only beaten a handful of rivals in seven starts, one of them over hurdles; off 192 days and no reason to suggest she'll be in the mix.

Jukebox Jolene (IRE)

0%

Made some late progress when beaten 27l in maiden hurdle at Down Royal on debut 217 days ago; unlikely she will find enough improvement to threaten main players here.

My Poetic Queen (IRE)

0%

Half-sister to winners Cotteemcavennigoal (2m hurdle) and Letters To Juliet (2m1f hurdle); dam point/2m6f hurdle winner, closely related to useful winners Dosco (2m1f-3m hurdle/chase) and Oscargo (3m hurdle/chase); market can guide on debut.

Pixie Hill (IRE)

0%

Pulled up on sole point outing and tailed off on hurdles debut at Limerick nine days ago.

Shing Shilla (IRE)

0%

Low-level handicapper and a 16-race maiden; rated 75 and likely to struggle here.

Urinmydreams

0%

Nothing of note in a bumper and two maiden hurdles; hard to see featuring in the finish.

Spellitoutforme (IRE)

0%

Decent pedigree, dam sister to 2m6f hurdle/chase winner and closely related to smart Royal Rendezvous; tailed off on debut at Punchestown 24 days ago; more of long-term project.
