13:40 LimerickRaces.ie Rated Novice Hurdle

Race preview

CASTLEGRANGE can prove best. A close fourth on his only 2019 point-to-point run, he initially failed to show much over hurdles but ran a very promising race when second at Fairyhouse last January. He was well held by winner Aarons Day but that horse won again next-time, is now rated 125 which suggests CASTLEGRANGE is better than his current 103 rating. He was brought down at halfway at Wexford last month but may have derived some benefit from that away-day and has ideal conditions today. More Info is a useful and consistent type who ran a solid race when second here recently. She is ground-versatile and should prove competitive from her rating and might confirm recent course form with Lauderdale Lady. Beating The Odds has done well in handicaps recently and should get involved despite racing from a career mark of 101. Elusive Star stays well and likes testing ground but might bump into a few too strong while Buck Rogers has a very ordinary jumping technique and might do well to defy top weight.
