120,000 gns purchase after finishing runner-up on second of 2 Flat starts in France for Francis-Henri Graffard. 14/1, shaped as if needing run when seventh of 9 in juvenile at Punchestown (2m, good to soft) on hurdle debut 18 days ago. Has been gelded and he's open to progress.

Servare (Usa)

Age: 3
Weight: 10st 12lbs

Fair Flat winner for this yard. Below par at the Curragh recently but that first outing for 4 months should have sharpened him up for this hurdle debut.

Timeform Verdict

KENOUGH can build on his promising hurdle debut third at Punchestown and prove too strong for penalised Killarney winner Cite Florale. Gordon Elliott's Contador was well behind the selection at Punchestown but should improve and get closer to him this time.

Betting Forecast

6/5 Kenough (Fr), 7/4 Cite Florale (Fr), 11/1 Admiral Will Brown, 10/1 Contador, 28/1 Servare (Usa), 66/1 Swift Charm (Ire), 100/1 Moon Aura (Ire), 80/1 Fay Og (Ire)
