19:00 Monroe's Live John & Margaret Monroe Memorial Mares Handicap Hurdle

Race preview

The only four-year-old in the line-up, MAXIOS PRIME might be able to get the better of her older rivals. A winner at Fairyhouse in February, she since ran well to finish third in a valuable contest at Cheltenham last month and had some smart sorts in behind. Nicely treated by the conditions of this race, it'll be disappointing if she's not involved towards the business end. Second on her debut for Eoin Griffin at Clonmel, it'll come as no surprise if Miss Gherkin manages to go a place better under champion conditional Tiernan Power Roche. One of two John Ryan-trained representatives in the line-up and fourth in this very contest 12-months ago, Flidais should give a good account of herself, while Fratas and Dame Rapide are others for the shortlist.
