Race 1 - Derra Farm Equestrian & Sean Sheehy 4yo Maiden
Fresh from a treble at Inchydoney last Sunday, Colin Bowe will look to continue his strong end to the season with the twice previously raced WASPY. He may have been no match for the standout Ittack Blue at Punchestown most recently, but he has two placed efforts to his name and deserves to get his head in front. Minella Double also looked likely to chase home another impressive Matthew Flynn O Connor winner before falling at the last in Dromahane a month ago, and is the obvious alternative. Ivegotdapower, Ihandaya and Ideal Clermount are others that cannot be discounted.
Race 2 - The Three Not So Wise Men - Eamon Courtney, Paudie OConnor & Ger Houlihan 5yo Geldings Maiden
FORTUITOUS FIND returned from a mid-season break a much improved performer with more positive tactics in Bartlemy seeing him find just one horse too good in a big-field maiden. He likely comes here as the one to beat with his stablemates Garcon Dargent and Eire Street also holding place claims on the pick of their form. Outside of the Ballyboy team, Tea And Chats and Song For My Father might offer the most interest of those with previous experience.
Race 3 - Tattersalls NH 5yo+ Mares Maiden
YOURNOTWEARINGTHAT more than out ran his starting price when beaten just two lengths in a big-field Punchestown maiden earlier this month and that should leave her holding big claims here. A case can be made for quite a few of her rivals with Dangan Des Champs, Chatshow Host, Elusive Mae, Blustery, Talkingthetalk and I Aint No Joke perhaps having the most to offer.
Race 4 - Quilter Insulation Open- Novice Riders
SOLOMN GRUNDY drops back in grade having pulled-up in the champion hunter chase at Punchestown but his form through the month of March would see him set the benchmark having finished second in the Tetretema Cup before defeating the recent wide-margin Killarney winner Stand Up And Fight at Nenagh. Visioman is an obvious danger after he lowered the colours of A Rated at Punchestown, with the stable companions La Feline and Some Are Lucky, plus the former Foxhounters winner It Came To Pass are others that can come to the fore.
Race 5 - Dillon Prendiville 6yo+ Geldings Maiden
CARRIGLUX was sitting just behind The Galahad Kid when exiting at the final fence at Dromahane earlier this month. That rival has more than advertised the form by coming out and winning again in Ballingarry last Saturday to enhance his claims. This is no one horse race however, with Whos Houdini bidding for compensation having looked set to collect at Monksgrange last month before falling at the last. He has since changed hands with this his first start for new connections and is a big threat. Imperial Tune and Useitorlooseit are others to consider for place honours.
Race 6 - Roches Feeds Mares Winner Of Three
Rule Of June and Fiery Brown were separated by just a head at Ballingarry last Sunday and they could meet once again just seven days later, but it may be CAPPAJUNE LADY that they have to beat as she went close to defeating the capable Beyond Redemption at Castletown-Geoghegan having already beaten geldings in Loughrea. The GAIN Final winner Koyote and Sofias Castle are others for the shortlist.
