We have two runners in the Randox Health Maiden Hurdle over 2m 2f. Dads Lad (Danny) has shown a bit of ability in a few runs in bumpers and has a chance here. He is a brilliant jumper and with a little improvement on his bumper form he could go close. Derracrin (Sean O’Keeffe) also jumps very well at home and, like Dads Lad, any improvement on his bumper runs would put him in here with a shout.
Recite A Prayer (Danny) runs in the 2m 5f maiden hurdle. He was third over this course and distance last month but would probably need to improve significantly to win today.
Gelee Blanche (Jack Foley) goes for the 2m 3f beginners chase. She was third at Sligo last time and we think a first-time tongue strap today might bring about the required improvement. She will like this good ground and with a bit of luck she might get off the mark over fences today.
