Irish racing today

Plenty of jumps racing today, with the best sport coming from Ireland. Ruby Walsh and Willie Mullins continue in unbeatable form and can have another highly successful afternoon at Navan, where Lilywhitedancer in the maiden hurdle at 15.00 CET, Palace Merano in the novice hurdle an hour later and Barker on the npovice chase at 18.05 all have winning chances. Walsh also rides the likely favourite Oscar Time for trainer MM Lynch in the most valuable race on the card, a novice handicap chase over 3 miles at 17.35.

At Limerick., the two best races are reserved for mares. There are 17 runners in the listed mares novice hurdle at 16.20; the latest form of Oligarch Society (Mike O´Brien/ Davy Russell), when she was 4th, beazen only 5 lengths by subsequent Cheltenham winner Go Native, should be good enough here. The Grade Three mares novice chase at at 17.50 can go to Brotenstown (Pat Cashman/ JM Allen), who holds Go Sandy Go (JJ Mangan/ Tom Doyle) on earlier form.
