Tipperary Racecourse plays host to a seven-race card this evening.

Curragh-based trainer Johnny Murtagh saddles Wolf-of-baggot-street in the opening Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden for two-year-olds.

Murtagh will have to shake off the attentions of the stable he used to ride for in his glittering career as a jockey, with Aidan O’Brien hoping Murillo can get off the mark at the second time of asking.

The Ballydoyle supremo is also likely to have one of the fancied runners in the three-year-old edition of the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden with Wisconsin

The first on the mix of flat and jump action gets underway at the Limerick Junction track at 5.40.
