Race Tip

French import HE'S ON FIRE (5) may have little trouble dispatching his rivals here on debut for the Willie Mullins yard. Steadily progressive attempting novices in France on soft going. Big shout. JOHNNY MOONSHINE (6) shaped as if a slightly stiffer test could suit when fourth at Ayr (2m) when resuming over hurdles. Makes plenty of appeal. THE DOG THIEF (9) won his sole outing in a point-to-point and begins under rules representing a young trainer whose runners all warrant respect. Watch betting for clues. ROSA DIAZ (11) is yet to achieve that much after her point-to-point success. Might challenge for the placings.
