FormscanBy Alan Magee - THE GREAT UNKNOWN showed promise in maiden hurdles and made a bright start over fences when prominent throughout and beating all bar Brave Adam (pair finished clear of the remainder) over 2m7f at Killarney last month. The selection hails from a yard in good form and is now fitted with cheekpieces. This race is restricted to horses rated 109 or less over hurdles and Due Course, successful on his penultimate start over this trip at Punchestown, just falls into the race criteria while Downpatrick maiden hurdle winner Tell Nobody Nothin is another to consider along with Be Fierce and Cosmo Renfro who both won over hurdles last time.
