Grade 3 Novice Hurdle 2 Miles
Chart Topper (Patrick) is much improved since going over hurdles and was impressive when winning a maiden at Downpatrick in August. That experience should put him in the picture here and hopefully he will finish in the first three.
Gaucher (Paul) was disappointing when running too free at Listowel last time. He will improve for that run and has the ability to go close here.
Grade 3 Hurdle 2 Miles
Winter Fog (Brian Hayes) is a course and distance winner and will handle the ground if the forecast rain arrives.
Daddy Long Legs (Paul) missed the break when unplaced in the Galway Hurdle but ran badly at this track on his previous run. If the ground turns soft it would be a big negative for him.
Handicap Hurdle 2 Miles
Old Bill Barley (Kieran Callaghan) was third at Kilbeggan last time and with Kieran’s valuable 5lb claim he has his chance.
Grade 3 Novice Chase 2m 4f
A Penny A Hundred (Paul) comes here off a win at Ballinrobe last month and will have no trouble with the trip and ground. She should go very well.
Fillies Bumper 2 Miles
We introduce a nice filly called Al Arrivee (Patrick) who is a half-sister to Al Boum Photo. She’s an exciting horse to have in the yard and we’re looking forward to seeing how she gets on today. She has done everything we have asked of her at home and the forecast rain won’t be any problem.
