The Hollywood Syndicates’s Ireland-based hurdler Il Etaits Temp is entered in the Grade 1 Paddy Power Future Champions Novice Hurdle over two miles at Leopardstown on December 27.
There are 38 entries and if he takes his place he will be up against the like of his Paddy Mullins-trained stablemate Facile Vega, who is by Walk In The Park out of the legendary Mullins-trained race mare Quevega (Robin Des Champs).
Il Etaits Temp is leased by Hollywood from the Kieswetter-owned Barnane Stud.
He is being targeted at the Cheltenham Festival.
His likely race there will be the Grade 1 Supreme Novices Hurdle over two miles and 87 yards.
He finished an excellent 8,75 length fifth in last year’s Grade 1 Triumph Hurdle over two miles and one furlong at the Cheltenham Festival.
