12:07 Mares’ Novices’ Hurdle 2m7f 70 yards 
Predicted 1-2: 
1 – Wouldubewell 
2 – Gio’s Girl 

Comment: Not much form to go on but Wouldubewell looks interesting having won two ‘point-to-point’ races in Ireland. Gio’s Girl showed she stays this trip when 2nd last time and should run well.   
 


12:37 Handicap Hurdle 2m3f 207 yards 
Predicted 1-2: 
1 – Donald Dux 
2 – Glencoum Lass 

Comment: Donald Dux was impressive when winning 8 days ago by 16 lengths and he can go in again off the same handicap mark. Glencoum Lass also won well last time out and looks a challenger here.  
 


13:10 Maiden Hurdle 2m3f 207 yards 
Predicted 1-2: 
1 – Tupelo Mississippi 
2 – Jetaway Joey 

Comment: Tupelo Mississippi was a good 3rd in the ‘French Furze’ hurdle last time and this return to heavy ground should suit. Jetaway Joey fell last time, but shaped well before that and is a danger.  
 


13:45 Handicap Chase 2m4f 
Predicted 1-2: 
1 – Duhallow Lad 
2 – Diamond Brig 

Comment: Diamond Brig won over this course and distance 26 days ago and looks to be a leading player here. However Duhallow Lad relishes heavy ground and is selected after a good 2nd last time.  
 


14:20 Handicap Hurdle 2m7f 70 yards 
Predicted 1-2: 
1 – Saint Dalina 
2 – Imperial Icon 

Comment: Saint Dalina was an impressive winner here 10 days ago and can follow up here under the same conditions. Imperial Icon could improve upped to this trip and should go well.   
 


14:55 Novices’ Handicap Chase 3m 
Predicted 1-2: 
1 – Do It For Thy Sen 
2 – Shanty Alley 

Comment: Do It For They Sen is unexposed at 3 miles and shaped well last time when 2nd in the mud at Ffos Las. He’s the selection but Shanty Alley goes nicely on heavy ground and should run well.  
 


15:27 Novices’ Handicap Hurdle 1m7f 68 yards 
Predicted 1-2: 
1 – Ragamuffin 
2 – Fanfaron Dino 

Comment: The JP McManus owned Fanfaron Dino could be a cut above these on breeding as a half-brother to Champion Hurdler Epatante. However Ragamuffin is the one to beat, going for a hat trick.
