PUNCHESTOWN

Starting off the day in Punchestown we have TOUCH ME NOT in the maiden hurdle. It is his first time on the track and he needs a big galloping course to make the most use of him. Jack Kennedy has been booked to ride and hopefully can get the best out of him.

For the handicap hurdle we have TIMELESS PIECE and DOCTOR NIGHTINGALE. Timeless piece was a good winner the last day and has been hiked up for that with Jack Kennedy in the saddle. Doctor Nightingale has first time cheekpieces and we claim off her with Danny Gilligan taking off 5lbs.

SAINTE BAOL goes in the mares maiden hurdle. She hasn’t been able to convert her point to point win to the track just yet but we have Jack Kennedy in the saddle to give her the best chance.

FIND A FORTUNE and HE’S ULTIMATE go forward in the 2m4f maiden hurdle. Find a Fortune put up a good effort on return to the track the last day and is Jack’s pick. He’s Ultimate is starting to come to hand now and should like this track. Sam Ewing is booked to ride.

Finally rounding off the day is BOB CIGAR in the Rated Novice hurdle. A line can be drawn through his last run and hopefully he is back on form in what looks a competitive but open race with Jack Kennedy in the saddle.
