In depth
Verdict
Gordon Elliott looks to have found a relatively simple task for FLYING RISK to lose her maiden tag over hurdles. She won a bumper here a year ago and has been placed in her last three runs over timber on ground too testing. Mystery Stowaway has been highly tried over hurdles since landing a Listowel bumper and should find this more to his liking though Etincelle Lioterie looks more of a threat. She had some decent form in bumpers after arriving from the point-to-point field and this should be her game.
