Race preview
With solid form in stronger maidens over the winter, MINELLA POST could represent some value. A former point-to-point runner-up, the gelding finished third on his Rules debut for previous connections at Punchestown in May 2024. Again reaching the frame on his first start for trainer Thomas Gibney at Navan in November of that year, the son of Champs Elysees shaped with promise in three maiden hurdles before disappointing on his handicap debut. If forgiven that, he boasts solid claims in this company. Bumper winner Moja Dama holds leading claims on her hurdling debut. Despite her lack of experience, she has to be of serious interest. A consistent gelding, It's All Clear is another with every chance.
