QUILIXIOS began his juvenile hurdling career with five victories culminating in Grade 1's at Cheltenham and Punchestown. Beaten three times by Teahupoo subsequently, he looks a tremendous recruit to chasing. That winner's yard is represented by Cool Survivor, a Listed winner over timber and still in touch when falling three out in the Grade 1 Mersey Novices' Hurdle at Aintree in April. There's nothing with comparable form to the principals engaged here though La Malmason ran well for a long way on her chasing bow at Fairyhouse.
