We have three runners in the competitive Grade 3 Novice Hurdle over 2 miles. Paul rides Bialystok who looks the one to beat. He was very disappointing at Listowel last week but if he can reproduce his Galway Hurdle run he should be a big player here. Arctic Fly (Sean O’Keeffe) is in great form and is seeking a hat-trick here having won at Punchestown and Galway. She has every chance. Williamstowndancer (Danny) has a bit of ground to make up on Arctic Fly on their Galway run but hopefully she will run well.
Zarak The Brave (Paul) goes for the Grade 3 Hurdle over 2 miles. He won the Galway Hurdle last time and is well treated by these race conditions. He will go on the ground and should take some beating.
Sharjah (Paul) runs in the Grade 3 Novice Chase over 2m 4f. He won a beginners chase impressively on his chasing debut at Galway and will be suited by this trip and track. This ground may not be to his liking but he was the best of these over hurdles and we are expecting him to win again.
Alice Morgan (Jody) makes her debut in the Fillies Bumper. She has a nice pedigree and is more a summer type filly so this ground might be against her
