1.50 RACE

Taglietelle has the best hurdles form but most of his good runs have been on flatter tracks and he could have been found an easier opportunity than this for his first start over fences. His stable companion Roll It Out has some chasing experience and looks the better bet. Marinero looks to have improved since switching to Henry de Bromhead's yard, while Don’t Tell No One represents trainer Dermot Weld and owner Brian Gleeson of RTE Racing.

Selection: ROLL IT OUT. Next best: DON’T TELL NO ONE

2.25 RACE

Hurricane Ben won plenty of admirers when winning three times over fences during April and May, each time on a right-handed track like Galway. We can forgive him his defeat last time at left-handed Killarney. Tiger Roll, representing the Galway Plate winning owner and trainer, is the big danger. He has plenty of class but his jumping might let him down at a crucial stage.

Selection: HURRICANE BEN. Next best: TIGER ROLL

3.00 RACE

David Wachman runs two for owner J.P. McManus and both must be kept on side. It looks significant that stable jockey Wayne Lordan is on Boherbuoy, winner of a maiden at this meeting last year. This is his first start since last October and his draw is poor, so keep stakes small. Stable companion Hidden Oasis won with a bit in hand at Killarney. The form of top weight Dream Walker’s recent two wins don’t read especially well, while Ruler Of France has also won his last two starts but only by a short-head each time. Course and distance winner Sophie’s World is worth an each-way bet.

Selection: BOHERBUOY. Next best: SOPHIE’S WORLD

3.30 RACE

It’s very tempting to jump on the Andy Slattery/Declan McDonogh bandwagon with Planchart. Successful with Creggs Pipes here on Tuesday night, the trainer-jockey combo have serious claims in this listed contest as the form of Planchart’s recent fifth at Naas has worked out well. A word of warning – Planchart has caused problems at the stalls before so leave it late to plunge! It will be another feather in the cap for classic-winning trainer Adrian Keatley if he can get blacktype with Mothers Finest, having bought this 102-rated filly out of Karl Burke’s yard for 60,000gns three weeks ago. Dermot Weld’s Emergent has looked moody in the past and makes limited appeal. Morning favourite Rayisa is certainly consistent and should get placed again.

Selection: PLANCHART. Next best: MOTHERS FINEST

4.05 RACE

Bel Sas will be a short priced favourite and is worth opposing as there are a few other improvers in the field. Joseph O’Brien’s Exactoris may not have been very impressive when winning at Tipperary but that was his first run for a while and this big horse is bound to have improved for the outing. Carrig Cathal looks the best of Gordon Elliott’s two runners and has every chance.

Selection: EXACTORIS. Next best: CARRIG CATHAL

4.45 RACE

The Turf Club hearing and subsequent court case surrounding Pyromaniac’s participation in this race has brought bad publicity to the sport and one can imagine the media coverage should the horse win – a scenario that is very, very possible. Cheltenham winner Superb Story has a big shout too, and a couple of outsiders to consider are Ancient Sands and Moon Over Germany.

Selection: PYROMANIAC. Next best: SUPERB STORY

5.25 RACE

A nasty puzzle. Recent winner Tara Dylan won’t be suited by any further rain. We’ll take a chance on Athenry Boy, who ran reasonably well here last year and has been in good form of late. Blue Skimmer is another who has shown glimpses of form and, with a good draw, might be suited by the distance and ground.

Selection: ATHENRY BOY. Next best: BLUE SKIMMER

6.00 RACE

No Willie Mullins runner here, so Patrick Mullins is free to ride for his uncle Tom and it would be no surprise if their representative Llancillo Lord produced an improved performance. A safer bet would be Big Bad Brian who should find this a lot easier than when second to Bel Sas in a Belewstown hurdle race.

Selection: BIG BAD BRIAN. Next best: LLANCILLO LORD
