Quilixios is put forward to make a winning start for Gordon Elliott. This French import made a bright start to his jumping career with a commanding success at Compiegne in March. He looks an interesting recruit from France and might have the measure of his stablemate Duffle Coat who made a good impression when winning well on his racecourse debut at Punchestown last month. The form of that Punchestown race looks solid with the third, Scholastic, winning during the week as well as chasing home Longclaw at Listowel a few weeks ago.
