16:20 Dreamingandhoping

Different tactics can see DREAMINGANDHOPING get off the mark here. She was held up at Cork and that contributed to her being too keen so a more straightfoward approach could pay dividends in this weaker contest. If she can run to her mark of 108 this is hers for the taking. The booking of Jack Kennedy for the 8yo mare Lady De Vesci cacthes the eye, as does the fact she is being sent over hurdles so late in life.

16:55 Calthor

This is actually competitive, especially for a maiden hurdle so late in the season, and will take a bit of winning. Insignia Of Rank is dangerous if he settles, while Wojood and Carrig Rock both bring solid placed form to the table. But surely CALTHOR is the one with most ability. He impressive point win was on yielding ground so perhaps conditions have been to blame of late, that certainly looked the case when finding little off the bridle at Wexford.

17:30 Zoffanien

It is hard to get away from ZOFFANIEN, but it won’t be an easy watch. He flew home to force a photo at Cork and no doubt title-chasing Rachael Blackmore will seek lots of cover here too. He’s gone up 4lb for being beaten, but a mark of 132 might not be the ceiling of his ability. If the gaps open, he should be hard to beat. Others of interest are top-weight Wolf Prince and Humaniste.

18:00 Fairyhill Run (e/w)

Extremely competitive. Minx Tiara is interesting back over flights but may prefer softer ground, Dinard Rose, Regina Dracones and Daphne Moon are proven stayers while Norwigi looked good in landing the odds at Fairyhouse. At the likely prices, FAIRYHILL RUN makes each-way appeal given she has won at the track before and she should be capable of winning a nice pot like this.

18:30 Different Beat

Having recorded back-to-back wins over fences, Springfield Lodge will be popular off a 13lb lower hurdles mark but the market should reflect that. It could pay to side with DIFFERENT BEAT on just her second start for Gavin Cromwell while Balkos wouldn’t be winning out of turn.

19:00 Run For Alice

Malinas Glory showed up well on debut in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel but that was a weak race and it would be a surprise if one of the newcomers didn’t improve past hum. RUN FOR ALICE could be the one. From a family that has done well for the yard, she could be capable of making an immediate impact, especially if the market speaks favourably. Bronn is interesting for a team who are a dab hand in bumpers while Rocket Carnival should be better than what he showed on debut.

19:30 Fameaftertheglory (NAP)

Glengouly has to be better than what he showed on debut for Willie Mullins but even if he improves as expected he will need to be an above average sort to beat FAMEAFTERTHEGLORY (NAP). A point winner who made decent money, Fameaftertheglory showed up well in a bumper last month at Punchestown to finish second and should go one better here. Top Bandit has been improving with each run and won’t be far away while Lispendense has a squeak.
