Childrens List runs for the first time since pulling up in the Grand National at Aintree in the feature event at Limerick on Saturday.

The Willie Mullins-trained eight-year-old travelled well for a long way in the world’s most famous steeplechase before eventually calling it a day before the final fence.

He has his sights lowered significantly for the Cliona Hagan Plays Live July 26th Chase and merits the utmost respect, despite having to concede weight to each of his three rivals.

With Peter Fahey’s Mine Now seemingly out of his depth, the only two serious rivals to Childrens List are the Gigginstown House Stud-owned pair of Cote Tete and Nick Lost

Noel Meade ’s Cote Tete made an impressive start to his career over fences at Downpatrick last month but faces a huge step up in class.

Nick Lost won a handicap hurdle at this track before making a winning debut over the larger obstacles at Punchestown and goes in search of the hat-trick for Henry de Bromhead and jockeys’ title leader Rachael Blackmore.

It could be another profitable afternoon for the Mullins team, with the champion trainer’s Irish Lass likely to be hard to beat in the opening Book Online At www.limerickraces.ie Mares Maiden Hurdle.

The daughter of Getaway is a half-sister to Grade One-winning mare Airlie Beach and looked the part on her bumper debut at Tramore last summer.

Odds-on backers had their fingers burnt when she was beaten on her hurdling bow at Downpatrick last month, but there is every chance she will reward those who keep the faith.

Mullins and his nephew Danny combine with Miss Sapphire in the Twilight Evenings At Limerick Racecourse Beginners Chase.

The six-year-old won a bumper and three hurdle races and holds obvious claims as she tackles fences for the first time.

Hopes will also be high for Gavin Cromwell’s Kaptoris, as she bids to follow up a recent Kilbeggan victory in the Follow Limerick Racecourse On Twitter Handicap Hurdle.
