Prolific winner Rashaan is the star attraction at Galway in the Ryans Cleaning Chase today.

Successful in a Grade Three over the course in August, his 12th career victory, Colin Kidd’s six-year-old chestnut will be well-fancied to follow-up on Tuesday- with the returning Sean Flanagan booked for the ride.

Flanagan, who broke his leg in a fall at Tramore in August, appears to have strong claims through the card.

In the opening Mervue Maiden Hurdle, he rides Momus — a leading contender after winning a bumper in good style at Roscommon on his last start.

Willie Mullins saddles three in this extended two-mile-two-furlong contest, with Paul Townend set to partner unlucky Listowel fourth Diamond Hill

Flanagan takes the ride on Ingleby Mackenzie in the GalwayPubs.com Handicap Hurdle.

A consistent sort, the Eoin Doyle-trained gelding was narrowly beaten on is most recent start at Clonmel and should give a good account of himself here — with Hearts Are Trumps Star Maker and Broder appearing to be his chief rivals.

Fencing debutant Dis Donc is Flanagan’s mount in the GalwayRaces.com Beginners Chase.

The French-bred bay was a useful performer over the smaller obstacles, and it will be interesting to see how he fares as a chaser.

Mind’s Eye and Voix Du Reve are other leading hopes, the latter trained by Willie Mullins.

Mullins has Epswell and Cool Colonnade in the GalwayPubs.com Rated Novice Hurdle, with Townend aboard the former.

Successful on his Irish debut at Sligo in August, Epswell is fitted with a tongue strap for the first time.

Joseph O’Brien is also double-handed in this eight-runner contest, saddling Listowel winner Petit Tartare and the JP McManus-owned Paris Texas

The Guinness Handicap Chase is the most valuable race on the programme, with a bumper field of 18 declared. Presenting Mahler won this 12 months ago, and is back to defend her crown — while other notables are top-weight Powersbomb, Ballinrobe winner Rocky Court and the ‘Shark’ Hanlon-trained Peacocks Secret

Well-bred newcomer Midnight Run is an interesting contender in the concluding Jamie Kyne Memorial Flat Race — while Poker D’ainay and Mister Fogpatches are others for the short-list.
