16:35 Ladbrokes Handicap Hurdle (80-102)

Race preview

FLEURYS FORT looks one of the safer options in this weak but competitive contest. The ten-year-old has been an excellent servant to connections, winning seven times, with his latest success coming at Tramore in August. He since failed to make an impact over two miles at the Co Waterford venue, but back up in trip now an improved performance can be expected. Recent Clonmel winner Casamari Abbey is likely to prove popular with punters and it'll come as little surprise if he manages to follow-up. War Eagle ran well to finish third on his handicap debut at Gowran and there should be plenty more to come from the four-year-old son of Australia. Georgieshore was far from disgraced on his comeback run at Listowel last month and he looks to have solid each-way claims, while others for the shortlist here are Midland Millie and handicap debutants Outside The Door and Eversosaucy.
