FormscanBy Tom Weekes - Debut point-to-point winner DOWNMEXICOWAY has run well in two recent hurdles and contests a winnable maiden. He ran well in a Punchestown festival bumper in April 2023 prior to missing 550 days but a reproduction of his latest two efforts – the latest when chasing home a promising type, would give him every chance. Busy Being Busy ran well on his debut at Thurles recently when finishing well to take third and is open to progression. Battleoftheboyne was a E30,000 store sale purchase and is well bred. He is a half-brother to his yard’s Grade 1-placed Hollow Games and while he lacks experience, could have nice ability.
