A couple of horses running at Punchestown today have seen their odds contract sharply.

Michael Grassick 's Whisper In Court contests the opening Stanley Asphalt Hunters Steeplechase for the Bishopscourt Cup at 3.40.

The seven-year-old mare is 12/1 from 40/1 for this 2m5f test.

This is her first start for Grassick having been unplaced in five races under rules for Paul Stafford. She has been off since May last year.

Robert Tyner 's Passing Well trades around 11/2 from 20/1 for the bumper at 7.45.

This Coastal Path gelding was sixth on debut in a maiden hurdle at Naas in December before unseating his rider in a bumper at Fairyhouse the following month.
