FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - Grade 1 winning chaser SPECIAL TIARA is difficult to ignore on his handicap hurdle debut. He's rated 153 over fences and just 116 here. Often these apparent handicap good things don't deliver but Special Tiara is an adaptable sort as you can see from his record. He comfortably won his maiden hurdle around Kilbeggan and last time in a first time hood, off a break, he was well-supported for a Killarney maiden on the level over a mile and six. That day Special Tiara made Tigris River (a son of Montjeu and the 1999 Irish 1000 Guineas heroine Hula Angel) work in the closing stages but he had no more to offer late on as the Joseph O'Brien-ridden colt drew on to prevail by a length and three quarters. The hood is on again and Special Tiara should prove difficult to beat. Portrade is a progressive course and distance winner and he can pick up the pieces if Special Tiara doesn't live up to his billing. Akinspirit won this very easily last year and he's not to be underestimated. He's Our Man has been running consistently lately.
