FormscanBy Donal Murphy - While second five times, KOREA managed just one win from eight starts in France, claiming a heavy ground maiden over an extended mile and a half trip last November. Starting off for Willie Mullins now, she looks the one to beat despite her lack of experience over flights. Newcomer Kazakh D'arthel won't have to be a star to make his presence felt, with the Gavin Cromwell-trained French bred out of a half-sister to seven time winner Enjeu D'Arthel. The 111-rated Edge Of Darkness finished second in a claimer at Roscommon last month and on his initial outing for new connections, he should be able to make an impact. A good third over the course and distance on Thursday, Herbies Rover is another leading hope.
A hurdle for four years old only, maidens at starting
Weights - 11st 7lbs Fillies allowed 7lbs

Quotes on Desert Haven (GB)
Desert Haven was one of Paul Hunt's (previous owner) horses and he let him go at the end of the season so I bought him back myself. We did a little job on his wind which helped and he goes on any ground. It's great because his new owners had Knockmore Prince who nearly broke our hearts last year!. They wanted him to jump (hurdles) and he does actually jump so we'll see how we go during the summer. I don't know whether he'll get that trip or not though but it's great to start with a win for them.
