FormscanBy Michael Graham - Connections thought that SOUNDS VICTORIUS needed the run when turned over at odds on in an auction maiden hurdle at Punchestown in November. This former bumper winner is taken to deliver on his second start over flights. Lovely Hurling travelled smoothly before putting the field away by five lengths in a Wexford bumper back in May, so is of obvious interest on his second go at hurdling. Champagne Kid was a comfortable winner of a Listowel bumper in September, so is likely to get involved. Grimaud was placed over hurdles in Cork and Navan, and is stepped up in trip in a bid to get off the mark.
A hurdle for five years old and upwards, maidens at startingWeights - 11st 12lbs Mares allowed 7lbs
