1.10 Durkin Bros Electrical Maiden Hurdle 2m 1f 90yd

Badly hampered before eventually finishing mid-division at Roscommon earlier in the week, Manoir De Mirande can gain compensation. Travelling strongly out in front approaching three out, the Gordon Elliott-trained gelding was virtually brought to a standstill by a loose horse. Connections have opted to bring him back out quickly and that move can be rewarded.

Whats New has disappointed on a few occasions in the past, but did nothing wrong when runner-up at Bellewstown recently. A reproduction of that effort would see him go close.

SELECTION: MANOIR DE MIRANDE

1.40 CT Electrical Maiden Hurdle 2m 1f 90yd

Nile Star shaped well enough when fifth at Wexford last time to suggest that he can make his presence felt. Tracking the leaders for much of that two-and-a-half-mile contest, the Ross O’Sullivan-trained gelding had no more to offer before the straight. Dropping back in trip here could see an improved performance.

Lightly-raced mare Unknown Fortune came forward from her debut to run a solid race at Kilbeggan last time. The John Ryan-trained eight-year-old wouldn’t have to progress that much more in order to take a hand in the finish.

SELECTION: NILE STAR

Next best: Unknown Fortune

2.15 Racing TV Irish EBF Mares Handicap Hurdle 2m 1f 90yd

In decent form before failing to justify odds-on favouritism at Perth last time, Kenisa Sport can resume her progress.

A bumper winner, who had made a successful transition to hurdling, the daughter of No Risk At All may have found the trip too far at the Scottish track.

At the foot of the weights, Steps In The Sand catches the eye.

Fourth at Downpatrick last time, the Ciaran Murphy-trained mare is a previous winner at this venue and has almost certainly been targeted at this race.

SELECTION: KENISA SPORT

Next best: Steps In The Sand

2.50 Foley’s Bar & Off Licence Handicap Hurdle 2m 1f 90yd

Mary’s Pride could be the answer to a tricky contest.

A staying on second at Ballinrobe on his penultimate start, the Edward Cawley-trained gelding may not have stayed when only seventh at Punchestown last time.

Back over a more suitable trip here, the nine-year-old has every chance.

Runner-up to an enterprisingly-ridden winner at Limerick recently, Dairy Force shouldn’t be far away.

Held up in rear on that occasion, the Gordon Elliott-trained gelding made decent late headway from off the pace.

SELECTION: MARY’S PRIDE

Next best: Dairy Force

3.25 Kilcawley Construction Handicap Hurdle (Div I) 2m 4f 116yd

The Noel Meade-trained Mickey Cohen can exploit a nice mark over hurdles. A frustrating maiden prior to getting off the mark on his chasing debut at Downpatrick on his penultimate start, the five-year-old reverted to hurdles when runner-up at Tipperary subsequently. He appears to hold strong claims in this company.

Course and distance winner The Eggler looks the main threat. Lightly raced for current connections, the gelding built on previous promise when opening his account here in May.

SELECTION: MICKEY COHEN

Next best: The Eggler

4.00 Kilcawley Construction Handicap Hurdle (Div II) 2m 4f 116yd

Successful over course and distance last time, Larkins Lane can follow up. Also a winner on her previous start at Limerick, the Philip Rothwell-trained mare is bidding for a hat-trick. In her current rich vein of form, she looks difficult to beat and has every chance of completing the three-timer.

Cherry Red also has to enter calculations. A maiden hurdle winner at this track on her recent stable debut, the David Christie-trained mare is open to any amount of improvement.

SELECTION: LARKINS LANE

Next best: Cherry Red

4.35 Sligo Park Hotel Handicap Hurdle 3m 1f 121yd

Evans Secret can win for local trainer Mark McNiff. Successful over course and distance last July, the gelding was only just denied on his reappearance here in May.

With regular jockey Phillip Enright unavailable, Darragh O’Keeffe looks a significant booking.

Well behind the selection here in May, Le Grand Vert remains of interest. Undoubtedly well handicapped over hurdles relative to his chase mark, the Noel Kelly trained 10-year-old could be dangerous to discount.

SELECTION: EVANS SECRET

Next best: Le Grand Vert

5.10 Clayton Hotel Mares INH Flat Race 2m 2f 59yd

Second over course and distance last time, Circus Hill can go one better. Trainer Mark McNiff loves to have a winner at this local meeting and the daughter of Fastnet Rock showed enough here recently to suggest that she is capable of getting her head in front.

Churchfield Annie was a beaten favourite at Downpatrick last time, but shouldn’t be too harshly judged on that performance.

Not every horse handles that unique track and the Emmet Mullins-trained mare had some decent snippets of form going into that race.

SELECTION: CIRCUS HILL

Next best: Churchfield Annie
