BLAZING KHAL, by Kalanisi out of a winning jumper, landed a heavy-ground bumper at Limerick at the end of last year and will have been well schooled for his hurdling debut. Champagne Vacation was in the process of running a big race when falling two out at Navan last month while Drop The Harrow fell three out when there with a chance at Kilbeggan. Explosive Boy hasn't been seen since falling at Gowran in March 2019 but winning point-to-pointer Gringo D'aubrelle will be tuned up for his hurdling debut after a bumper run earlier this year. The latter cost €270.000 after his success between the flags while Ingenious Stroke has joined Henry De Bromhead after scoring on the point-to-point course at Cork in April.
