Cork Race 7

Rbc Brewin Dolphin Hurdle

Prize Money: $33,210

WHATCOULDHAVEBEEN (6) has managed to take her form to a new level since fitted with cheekpieces. Ran a huge race when fifth in the G1 Champion Stayers Hurdle at the Punchestown Festival during May. She remains lightly raced tackling staying trips. Could take some beating with her mares allowance. HAPPY JACKY (5) dug deep to win a handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan over slightly further and might be the biggest danger on ratings. BEACON EDGE (1) holds some smart form. Needs to be respected after winning a conditions hurdle at Ballinrobe. FRANCISCAN ROCK (4) completes the shortlist.

Last run finished fifth of 13 runners at Punchestown 5yo+ STPLE HCP on June 9 over 4023m, 13 len behind Mousey Brown with 66kg at $26. Start before finished fourth of 15 starters at Killarney 5yo+ STPLE HCP on May 12 over 5230m, 12 len behind Brideswell Lad with 67.5kg at $13. Recent form suggests this might be a bit too tough.
