Verdict

MAKE A TRACK was purchased for £85,000 at Doncaster in May after his two bumper victories for David Arbuthnot and, as his dam is related to Champion Hurdler Make A Stand, he should do even better over hurdles. Reizovic won a bumper on heavy ground here and another on much quicker going at Fairyhouse. He'll be better for his hurdling debut behind Dylan Ross at Fairyhouse and looks a big threat. Worldor attracted major support on just his second start over timber at Down Royal in March and though run out of it by Kid Curry that will have brought him on and he's one to keep an eye on. Birzali, a winner on heavy ground on the Flat in France, was highly tried in two runs over timber in the spring and this expensive purchase is another to note. Ceol Rua was a big disappointment when beaten a long way at Killarney in May but better is expected from Willie Mullins' bumper winner.
