FormscanBy Michael Graham - BLIZZARD OF OZ looks a likely sort for Willie Mullins and Paul Townend. The form of his latest victory in Leopardstown was emphatically franked when the horse in fourth came out and landed a Fairyhouse Grade 2 novice hurdle by a wide margin. Answer To Kayf emerged from Cheltenham with credit from a staying-on fourth in the Martin Pipe Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle. He enjoyed a similar trip when delivering in Naas and his rating of 138 entitles him to be heavily involved. Backtonormal has form behind both Blizzard Of Oz and Answer To Kayf and has since switched stables to in-form Gavin Cromwell.

Quotes on Answer To Kayf (GB)
we gave Answer To Kayf an entry in the Albert Bartlett and I was also thinking of going for the Martin Pipe - we’ll see how he comes out of today. Eighteen months ago he couldn’t win a novice riders’ maiden in Wexford. He had a lot of problems with his hocks and was lame after his maiden hurdle run in Killarney last year, when beaten 24 lengths. He was then put out on grass and came in sound and hasn’t taken a lame step since. He’s twice the horse he was. It’s great as Denis (O’Connor, owner) has been a great supporter. He’s really patient and it’s great that it has paid off for him. we always hoped after his Limerick run that he’d be good enough to win this but when I saw Willie’s two in it, I was worried. He jumped really well and hit the line well. He did everything that I hoped and more. There is a great prize for the Final of this Series in Punchestown and I suppose that is probably the main aim. Whether we take in Cheltenham in the meantime we’ll see how he comes out of this. I’d say he’s flexible in terms of trip. He’s not a slow horse and I didn’t think he was stopping there at the finish. Johnny’s 7lb claim was obviously a big help today and we’ll see what the handicapper does with him after this.After Answer To Kayf (GB) finished 1st at Naas on Sat, 10th Feb 2024 2m 3f Hurdle Heavy

Quotes on Blizzard Of Oz (IRE)
I think the shorter trip was a benefit and he jumped better than he did in Naas. The ground might not be riding as heavy as people anticipated when I see (stablemate) Captain Cody being tapped for toe and that fella going easily at the second last. Captain Cody probably wants a longer trip. I’d imagine both horses will be aimed for the final in Punchestown and they will probably have a run before that.After Blizzard Of Oz (IRE) finished 1st at Leopardstown on Sun, 3rd Mar 2024 2m Hurdle Soft

Quotes on Iceberg Theory (IRE)
He was good today. We were a bit disappointed in Limerick where he jinked a little bit when Gavin's horse (Now Is The Hour) fell. We put cheekpieces on him today as we were worried the last day that he might be a bit of a divil, so we put them on today to make him concentrate. We were a bit worried with the way he was carrying on here in the parade ring, but Sean said he was only acting the maggot. He did it well and maybe we'll give him a stab at the auction final in Punchestown.After Iceberg Theory (IRE) finished 1st at Navan on Sat, 23rd Mar 2024 2m 4f Maiden Hurdle Heavy
