Race preview
C&D winner MENAS MIRACLE can register a second success. A former point-to-point scorer, the Brendan Walsh-trained mare won readily under this jockey here in July. Fourth off 10lb higher on her next visit to this track, the mare has subsequently run two solid races over fences. Now rated 6lb higher in that discipline, the daughter of Jet Away has to be of interest back over hurdles. Lightly raced to date, the Henry de Bromhead trained Fedneys Park should be open to further improvement this season. Also successful in a point-to-point, the Walk In The Park mare has every chance of a first win under Rules. Three-time hurdles winner Gamigin also boasts claims for the Noel Kelly yard.
