14:45 Mylestown Upper

The form of MYLESTOWN UPPER’s recent fourth looks solid with the runner-up winning since and he’s the tentative selection in a tricky opener to the card. It will be interesting to see what the market makes of stablemate Return To Base who is a noteworthy debutante and Hgranca De Thaix is another newcomer to consider.

NEW TO PADDY POWER?

15:20 Not Available

The stronger of the two divisions. NOT AVAILABLE has shown enough in two starts so far to suggest he can win a maiden hurdle and there’s every chance this step up in trip will suit. Buck’s Billionaire could be the main danger if he returns to his best form back on better ground, while Kavanaghs Cross is improving with each run and can’t be discounted.

15:55 Lost Oscar

Plenty in here with claims but it might be worth taking a chance on LOST OSCAR who should be suited by this step up in trip and has been running better than the bare form suggests. Irregularheartbeat was in the process of running a decent race before making a mistake at the final flight last time and another career-best from Nodoubtaboutthat should put her in the mix.

16:30 Robinnia

This could boil down to a match between two who contested a valuable Fairyhouse handicap last time. On better ground ROBINNIA has a realistic chance of turning the tables on obvious danger Lignou. If back to form after a tame effort at Downpatrick Coach Carter could have a big say here.

17:05 Bold Assassin

This is competitive but BOLD ASSASSIN shades the vote. He had looked a progressive stayer prior to a disappointing run last time but he has to be of interest back in maiden company with that effort probably best forgiven. Part Time Farmer is an obvious threat for Noel Meade with the step up in trip likely to suit.

17:35 Pictures Of Home

Ted Walsh’s PICTURES OF HOME is probably worth another chance. He is an unknown quantity on this ground, but his dam acted well on it. Likely dangers include Justbecool, placed on his first two handicap starts, and Ellipsism, preferred on the balance of form to the veteran Minella In Line, in front of him at Cork last time.

18:05 Never Feel Blue

This looks like an above-average bumper for this venue and no formality for NEVER FEEL BLUE, a half-sister to top novice hurdler Bob Olinger. Significantly, she is also a half-sister to two first-time-out bumper winners for her trainer, and may now keep up the family tradition. Young Leya also makes significant appeal on pedigree, while Rocked Up and Mourne Stowaway have form in the book.

18:35 Midnight It Is (NAP)

Joey Dunne’s 7lb claim is a factor in giving the vote to MIDNIGHT IT IS (nap) who has shown potential in recording second placings at Punchestown and Cork. The long-absent Kottayam has to be taken seriously, while Barncroft should not be judged harshly on his Navan run. Skol has shown some ability. Master Mattie and Dicebox comes from good homes.
