Downpatrick 15:58 - w/o Fuusland and Little Ginger

oddschecker Verdict

Bumper winner LITTLE GINGER can gain a first victory over jumps. Runner-up in a maiden hurdle at this track last time, the James Fahey-trained gelding should appreciate stepping up in trip. With only the two previous runs over flights, the son of Crystal Ocean is open to plenty of improvement and arguably sets the standard in a weak affair. Young Doran would hold definite claims on his first two outings over jumps, but has questions to answer having finished completely tailed off in a Listowel bumper last month. He will need the first-time cheekpieces to make a huge impact. Fuusland looks best of the remainder.

Prediction: 1st Little Ginger, 2nd Young Doran, 3rd Fuusland
