After a day off Irish racing returns with 7 races at Down Royal on Tuesday where the highlight is the 2.40 when 10 start the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Rated Novice Chase. Alice Avril is a useful horse who was a good 2nd in a handicap chase at Naas when last seen 23 days ago. She was unlucky to find a much improved Fighting Fit in the field who came home by 3 lengths but she should get back to winning ways here. Now Where Or When picked up his career best win taking a novice chase at Fairyhouse 10 day ago. He was 2 lengths in front at the finish coming under pressure in the closing stages and should do better. The other on the shortlist is The Priests Leap a decent chaser who was a good second at Limerick at the end of December. He would have got closer to the winner if he hadn't been hampered by loose horses and definitely enters calculations here. Of the rest look out for Gevrey who was a creditable 3rd behind Alice Avril at Naas and should not be taken lightly.
Big race prediction: 8: Alice Avril.
