Paul Ferguson has one selection for us on Thursday; The Real Article in the 2:45 at Clonmel. Compare odds and bet.
Be sure to pay attention to the action over at Clonmel, with Willie Mullins saddling three really interesting youngsters, all of which are too short to back, but are worth noting with the future in mind. Fatcatinthehat ought to be very tough to beat in the opening juvenile hurdle, three-times bumper winner Glens Melody looks a high-class mare in the making and should take the next, while Ballycasey was highly-touted ahead of winning a bumper last Christmas.
Aside from the Mullins trio, the highlight on the card is the chase debut of The Real Article, a high-class hurdler who ought to be very tough to beat, granted a clear round. He has gone off the boil a little over hurdles, but remains a very bright prospect for fences and one that could take high rank if things go to plan. His tissue price of 11/10 would seem more than fair, but is trading at 13/8 this morning.
