Barry Connell's hurdlers are always worth a look and Down The Park is likely to prove much better than when starting favourite for a Leopardstown maiden in March. Waterford Whispers showed plenty of potential at Fairyhouse in April but the form pick has to be POUR LES FILLES. A winning point-to-pointer and bumper, he jumped moderately on his hurdling bow at Punchestown earlier this month but a better round can see him open his account over timber. Folly Master easily won a confined maiden at Bartlemy in May while Beau Walking was beaten just half-a-length at Lisronagh in March and has joined the in-form Jessica Harrington.
