Leopardstown Race 5

Spinal Injuries Ireland Handicap Hurdle

Stake: $60,885

ETHICAL DIAMOND (4) finished sixth in the G1 Spring Juvenile Hurdle at this venue during February. Potentially well-treated on handicap debut in this sphere. Faded late tackling a valuable 2400m Royal Ascot handicap in June. Open to plenty of progress adopting first-time hood. PINOT GRIS (7) may go well revisiting handicap company following an effortless novices hurdle victory at Naas 47 days ago. LARK IN THE MORNIN (9) won a competitive handicap hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival in March and remains unexposed. GAUCHER (5) is worth noting attempting this tricky handicap.

Having second run back today. First-up after two months finished sixth of 13 starters at Fairyhouse in the LR 4yo+ OPEN on December 1 over 3319m, 11 len behind Washington carrying 68kg at $21. Previously second-up finished sixth of 13 starters at Bellewstown 4yo+ HCP on August 27 over 3520m, 5.5 len behind Walking On Glass carrying 72.5kg at $8.50. Will strip fitter and makes plenty of appeal.
