Longwood-based trainer Gordon Elliott will make the familiar trip to Clonmel this evening hoping to land the €10,000 Cahir Handicap (5.45pm) with Moonmeister”
Pat Martin has his Navan stable in great form of late and will be hoping that Gun Shoot can make her presence felt in the opening Tipperary Claiming Race at 4.05pm. Gun Shoot will face seven rivals but the fact that she is the only horse in the line-up that has already tasted success over this distance may give her an advantage. Colin Keane takes the ride.
Another trainer making hay at present is Denis Hogan and he has strong claims of landing the concluding Mylerstown Maiden Hurdle. Island Villa has put in some eye-catching performances over hurdles throughout the past few months and will be well-fancied to send punters home smiling.
