1.50 MARTIN REILLY BMW MAIDEN HURDLE 2M 80Y

Tree Of Knowledge was sent off a well-supported 7/4 favourite for his maiden hurdle at Cork last December but he ran no sort of race and struggled through the winter thereafter. He did put up two half decent runs in March, finishing third twice and that sort of form alone should see him involved in this sort of race. Add in the scope he has to progress now that he gets a chance to run on decent ground over hurdles for the first time and he could prove a tough nut to crack.
