RACE  SELECTION  REASON 

Race 1 

Adare Manor Opportunity Series Final Handicap Hurdle 

  

Straight John 

 

Good course form including easy victory on penultimate start 

Outpaced last time so step up in trip should suit 

Improving and has potential 
 

Race 2 

Connolly's RED MILLS Irish EBF Auction Hurdle Series Final 

 

Grey Jude 

 

Consistent performer and good second last time 

Gets a greater weight advantage over Vitorio Piel this time 

 

Race 3 

Louis Fitzgerald Hotel Hurdle 

 

Bunting 

 

Classy horse and this weaker than races he has been running in 

Not disgraced last time at the Cheltenham Festival 

Handles this ground well 

Race 4 

Channor Real Estate Group Novice Hurdle 

Doctor Steinberg 

 

Flopped at Cheltenham but had looked exceptional previously 

Sets a proven Grade 1 form standard from eight-length Dublin Racing Festival win 

Hood added and this track will suit 

 

Race 5 

Race & Stay At Punchestown Champion I.N.H. Flat Race 

The Mourne Rambler 

 

Won the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham and brings the best form 

Looks a step ahead of his rivals 

Race 6 

Colm Quinn BMW Handicap Chase 

 

Conyers Hill 

 

Back to a suitable trip after failing to stay over 3m1f last time 

Form of his Paddy Power Gold Cup fourth makes him a contender 

Has a nice record on this ground
