The SANSERV Rated Novice Steeplechase of €20,000 (Generously sponsored by SANSERV) A novice steeplechase for four years old and upwards which at entry are rated 130 or less (also open to horses which at entry are rated 130 or less in hurdle races). About 2m2f54y

RACE 1 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: BEGORRA MAN RACE VERDICT None of these can be easily discounted. Narrow preference is for KARL DES TOURELLES after a close second over C&D 20 days ago. Coral River has the ability and runs well fresh and rates a big danger, while King’s Bucks would prefer further but could be a decent chase prospect. [Justin O’Hanlon] Source: Racing Post

RACE 3 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: MISSOURI SNOW RACE VERDICT The most interesting runner is Missouri Snow on her hurdles debut with some good bumper form to her credit. Give It A Crack should improve for her run at Listowel, but the second that day Coolishael sets a good standard on all his form and will be hard to beat. However, the bumper form displayed by point winner JURY TIME was decent enough and the ground will not be an issue for her, so she gets a tentative vote. [Justin O’Hanlon] Source: Racing Post

The W.B. Gavin & Co. Handicap Hurdle of €25,000 (Generously sponsored by W.B. Gavin & Co. Solicitors)

W.B. GAVIN & CO. SOLICITORS

An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards (140 = 11st 12lbs). About 2m5f200y

RACE 5 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: TEED UP RACE VERDICT A very competitive heat. Stumptown would not be a surprise winner off his lower hurdles mark. Sportinthepark is respected as he tries to win this for the second straight year. Teed Up has a good record here and the step up in trip could well suit. The solution might be MYSTIC MALINA(nap) who has improved over longer trips and testing ground is not an issue. [Justin O’Hanlon] Source: Racing Post

SELECTION: MYSTIC MALINA

Trifecta

Placepot

The COLM QUINN BMW Handicap Hurdle of €10,000 (Rated 0-100) (Generously sponsored by COLM QUINN BMW) An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards rated 0-100. About 3m

RACE 6 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: MOONSHINE GIRL RACE VERDICT It will be interesting to see if the money comes for Diamond Dollar, who can race off an 11lb lower hurdles mark on this return from nine months off. He’s not entirely proven over this far, though, and this will be a real test of stamina in the conditions. The course specialist Grace Faraday should be thereabouts again, but preference is for ROC MY HAARTH who handles heavy ground well and has a couple of runs under his belt after a summer break.

PREDICTION: TODO BIEN RACE VERDICT After a promising debut at Bellewstown in April, MARBLE HILL, whose sire was a smart softground hurdler in France, is taken to make a winning debut for Gavin Cromwell. Ballyadam Star was quietly fancied for a Punchestown festival bumper which has worked out well, and he showed plenty of ability on that occasion. Todo Bien comes into it based on his first run, which was on testing ground, and newcomer Here’s Jim represents a very capable trainer. [Mark Nunan] Source: Racing Post
