We head across the water to Perth today.
In the first race, the maiden hurdle, NO MORE SILVER is a non runner so we just send out LIGHTNING LEGS. She has plenty of experience on the flat and made her hurdling debut last week where she ran respectively. Sam Ewing takes the ride here today.
In the Novices Limited Handicap Chase we run LIGHTKEEPER. He had back to back wins in Ireland at the tail end of last season and, although his recent form has tailed off slightly, he still holds plenty of ability and could bounce back here today. He will be partnered by Jordan Gainford who knows him well.
POWER OF WORDS makes his handicap debut in the Guy Sterling is 50! handicap hurdle. A progressive sort who was a winner of his maiden hurdle last time out, he has plenty of experience under his belt and she show a good account of himself in handicap company. Josh Williamson rides and claims a useful 5lb.
GINA MOON takes her chances in the handicap chase. She finished mid-field in a 2m7f beginners chase at Downpatrick two runs ago and has shown that she relishes the longer distances. Hopefully she will show a good account of herself with Sam Ewing in the plate.
Our final runner of the day is COUTACH in the bumper. He made a promising debut at the Punchestown festival where he finished 5th before going on his summer break. He ran a bit too free on his seasonal reappearance at Galway so we are hoping that the addition of a hood here today will help him settle and come home strongly. Josh Williamson takes the ride.
