It’s starting to get bust as we have some very exciting runners before we head into the weekend.

Our first runner will be APPLES JANE in the mare maiden hurdle. It is a nice small field where she can hopefully pick up a place. It would be great if she could pick up a win and she has Sean Bowen in the saddle.

Our next runner in Ayr is STEDE BONNET in the Novices hurdle. He has been going well and has picked up plenty of prizes along the way. He looks the pick of the bunch and will have Sean Bowen in the saddle.

The first of our runners over in Thurles is MODE AVION. This horse hasn’t quite managed to translate his French form to Ireland but has Jack in the saddle here.

A lot of eyes will be on the Thurlesraces.ie maiden hurdle where the exciting EL CAIROS heads the field. He was only getting going in Leopardstown the last day before having a dramatic fall. Jack is back in the driving seat and hopefully all goes well.

ALBUS has his third run here and could be better suited to handicaps however he has an eachway chance here with Jordan Gainford booked to ride.

Finally in the handicap hurdle we have JUKE HILL who has first time cheekpieces for this and needs to regain a bit of form to strike. Jack Kennedy has been booked to ride.
