Wisteria Bloom looked to have a chance in the 5.23 at Clonmel yesterday and would be the selection if turning up here instead. Toonagh Warrior made an encouraging hurdling debut at Kilbeggan three weeks ago but winning bumper Minella Diamond disappointed at the same fixture when beaten a long way. LITTLEFOOT, narrowly beaten over this trip at Limerick, then found 2m4f too far at Wexford and can get off the mark. Monsieur Azul burst a blood vessel at Down Royal so did well to finish as close as he did.
