Tassarolo

Jockey: G Brouder Trainer: Denis Gerard Hogan Age/Wt: 4/11-7 F: 5-3

3/1

Comment: Looks to be the stable's first-string; modest enough Flat maiden; the best of two maiden hurdle runs at Cork was last time when only beaten 2l; was 3.75l in front of Yosemite Gold that day and should confirm that form; cheekpieces added.

Comment: From the family of high-class mare Like-A-Butterfly; was only the owner's third-string on debut at Tipperary but ran a solid race; needs a fair bit more in this stronger contest but can go well.

Comment: A 700,000Gns yearling was later resold for 2,500Gns; modest Flat maiden but ran a solid race on second hurdle start when fourth at Killarney last month; not so good on the Flat (soft) since but can run well as long as the ground stays decent.
