Tuesday didn't go well with my selection Priory Park coming 4th. The 2/1 favourite led entering the straight but was soon pressed,he dropped to 3rd and a slight mistake at the last saw him loose another place and with no extra pace he saw the 4/1 chance Cregane Ned win the race.
Wexford stages the midweek card where the highlight of 7 races comes at 3.25 when 11 line-up for the Michael O'Murchadha Memorial Handicap Hurdle. Feelgood Island last won at Down Royal back in December by 2 1/4 lengths,his last run was a very good third in a novice hurdle at Naas 25 days ago. He makes his handicap hurdle debut here and should go well. Bythesametoken picked up his last win at Tipperary in October,his best run since then was a very good second at Naas just 10 days ago and he should definitely be taken seriously here. Hybery last won on this course and over this races distance in August, he was last seen finishing a respectable 11th in a handicap hurdle at Leopardstown 73 days ago. Making his return here after a long break gives him a good chance. Looking at the rest of the field the one who stands out is Gold Des Bois he picked up his only career win at Clonmel in October with his last run being a creditable 5th at Leopardstown at the end of December and he has an outside chance here.
Big race prediction: 3: Feelgood Island.
