18:18 Ivan Connaughton Auctioneers Opportunity Handicap Hurdle (80-95) (Div 1)

Race preview

Fresh from a double at Bangor on Saturday, 'Shark' Hanlon might be able to strike here with GRIZABELLA. A winner on the level last summer, she ran a fine race to finish fourth on just her second start in handicap company at Wexford and she is fitted with a hood for the first time now. Trying to second guess Charles Byrnes is a futile exercise and so it's difficult to know what to expect from Redwood Queen. She stayed on strongly to finish third under tender handling on debut for the highly controversial Limerick handler at Punchestown last month. Macs Lady also ran a cracker on debut for a new outfit at Limerick. Now in the care of Shane Ryder, she ultimately couldn't hold off the progressive Bal Kauto, and had to settle for second after attempting to make all. Taylor Three Rock successfully made every inch of the running at Listowel recently and she is sure to have plenty of supporters, while others for the shortlist in this competitive affair are Up And Out, Skip Mahler and Atlantic Wonder.
