Race Tip

QUEEN MAEVE (7) has joined a top UK stable having finished a promising fifth in a Leopardstown jumpers flat race two months back. May offer some value taking on hurdles for this first occasion. Must go close. APOLLON FORLONGE (1) comfortably handled NO BOUNDARIES (4) when clashing in December and can confirm those placings despite a penalty and a subsequent reversal. Sure to be popular in the market while the noted opponent could certainly come on for that further experience and rates highly again. THE PUNTER (5) is a half-brother to the very useful The Shunter and is entitled to respect first time up.
