Champagne Fever set for Gowran test

Written By Unknown on Jumat, 13 Februari 2015 | 23.06

Champagne Fever tries to boost his confidence ahead of a potential return to Cheltenham in the Red Mills Chase at Gowran Park.

Twice successful at Cheltenham, Willie Mullins' classy grey booked his King George ticket with a smooth success in the Clonmel Oil Chase, only to fail to stay at Kempton, and he then fell in the Kinloch Brae when pressed by Don Cossack.

He is prominent in the lists for both the Queen Mother Champion Chase and the Ryanair Chase and his performance in this Grade Two will tell the champion trainer which race, if any, to target.

Heading the opposition here is Texas Jack, who finished an honourable fifth in last week's Hennessy. Bright New Dawn is another danger, but the other two appear outclassed.

Mullins had contemplated a tilt at the Red Mills Trial Hurdle with Champion Hurdle hotpot Faugheen, but instead relies on Abbyssial, who returns from a lay-off.

He is taken on by the Edward O'Grady pair Kitten Rock and Sailors Warn, as well as Gordon Elliott's duo of Tiger Roll and Thunder Zone.

It isn't too late for Zafayan to throw his hat into the Triumph Hurdle ring, although he will need to step up markedly on his three NH placings so far in the Shantou At Burgage Stud Maiden Hurdle to warrant a crack at the juvenile championship.

The action commences with the Ladbrokes Ireland Beginners Chase at 1.40pm, in which the returning pair of Lord Adare and Upazo might be the ones to concentrate on.

Toubaloo is another to consider, and his last-start Thurles conqueror Like It A Lot goes to post for the At The Races Careys Cottage Cup Handicap Chase.

Rathpatrick bids to follow up last month's Fairyhouse triumph in the Live Music After Racing Handicap Hurdle, and plenty of Kate Appleby Shoes' supporters will keep the faith ahead of the EBF Ronan Lawlor Memorial Mares Flat Race.
