4.50pm RACE 1

(Generously sponsored by Tote Ireland)

A hurdle for five years old and upwards, maidens at starting.

About 2 miles 5 furlongs 11 yards.

RACE PREDICTOR

The Predictor is a ‘Computer Generated’ predicted outcome of the race in visual form, generated by an algorithm of key factors (including eg current form, ratings and going.)

PREDICTION: ISLE OF SARK

RACE VERDICT

A bumper winner at this meeting last year, My Great Mate, is probably the most interesting of Willie Mullins’ trio but preference is for DON’TSTOPTHEMUSIC. He was impressive when landing a Punchestown bumper when last seen and may improve again for the step up in trip here. Lightkeeper has threatened to win a maiden hurdle and is another to consider.

5.25pm RACE 2

(Generously sponsored by Tote Ireland)

An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards (123 = 11st 12lbs).

About 2 miles 6 furlongs 111 yards.

RACE PREDICTOR

The Predictor is a ‘Computer Generated’ predicted outcome of the race in visual form, generated by an algorithm of key factors (including eg current form, ratings and going.)

PREDICTION: BELLA BLISS

RACE VERDICT

Plenty of these could be ahead of their marks, none more so than PAGGANE who arrives on the back of a career best in novice hurdle company on this sort of ground and he can continue on his upward trajectory. Costanuci looks like a big player back in this sphere and the unexposed So They Tell Me is the pick of the JP McManus runners after major improvement for a step up to this sort of trip last time.

RACE PREDICTOR

The Predictor is a ‘Computer Generated’ predicted outcome of the race in visual form, generated by an algorithm of key factors (including eg current form, ratings and going.)

PREDICTION: ENDLESS PURSUIT

RACE VERDICT

In great form over hurdles in recent months Redwood Queen has to be taken seriouslly but might not have the pace to match ALFHEIM who has a smart Flat pedigree and shaped well when fourth in a 1m2f Curragh maiden that has worked out well. Man Of Worth is unexposed and represents a strong trainer/rider combination. Bumper winner Mazyad should be better for a comeback run at Listowel in June, and his stablemate Shoda has potential for improvement. Source: Racing Post

RACE VERDICT

Though PERCEVAL LEGALLOIS had to settle for second at the Punchestown festival there was much encouragement to be taken from the quality of his jumping. This trip should be close to ideal for him, and he can outstay Mister Policeman and Zanahiyr, the stable selected for Willie Mullins and Gordon Elliott respectively. There are no stamina doubts about Lets Go Champ who is the pick of Henry de Bromhead’s runners. No Britishtrained horse has won this since 2008, but In Deo Excelsis could make a bolf bid in the same colours as the selection.

RACE VERDICT

After getting caught wide in a Premier Handicap at the Curragh last time, THOR’S HAMMER did well to stick around for third and he may be able to resume progress after his win in a Killarney maiden earlier in the summer. There’s a suspicion we still haven’t seen the best of Air Commander who was a beaten favourite at Leopardstown last time and Monasterboice has to be a big threat after his recent success in a maiden [Phil Anderson] Source: Racing Post

PREDICTION: BARRIER

RACE VERDICT

Stormbreaker might be the pick of the Willie Mullins trio and you wouldn’t put it past the master trainer to have him ready to roll after his absence, while the same is true of Jacovec Cavern on his first run for Emmet Mullins. The market should be informative to gauge their expectations. A chance is taken on HOW ABOUT NO, a keen-goer who could be ideally suited by a big-field scenario around Galway.
