Coolaghknock Glebe will try to make it a double at Clonmel as he steps up in trip for Thursday's Martinstown Opportunity Handicap Chase.

Christy Roche 's charge won over two miles and two furlongs at the track just over three weeks ago and he will be tackling another couple of furlongs, as well as a 10lb hike in the weights, this time around. He Rock's was another to strike gold last time out for Stephen Mahon while Clara More was a hurdles winner at the track two weeks ago.

The seven-strong line up is completed by De Benno Hospital Heavenlybrook and Easyondeye

Willie Mullins has a big week in prospect at Cheltenham and Augustin will try to bag a little confidence booster for the team in the Ardfinnan INH Flat Race after finishing fourth on his racecourse bow. Coolbane West has hit the bar on a couple of occasions but will likely have plenty of supporters in the Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Maiden Hurdle.

Michael Winters' Perfect Woman is another for the shortlist following two recent second places. Ballyadeen leads the field for the Lisronagh Maiden Hurdle, in which Rolling Revenge is an interesting contender having placed in point to point company. Knockraha Pylon represents Adrian Maguire in the Carrick-On-Suir Mares Handicap Hurdle in which Good As Gold and Curragh Na Gold also hold decent chances. Oscar Sam ran well enough when third at Punchestown last time and shoots for compensation in the Comeragh Handicap Hurdle. Sarah Battle bids to arrest her frustrating run of places in the same event. Horse No Name is the pick in the Slievenamon Beginners Chase as he tackles the bigger obstacles for the first time following three decent hurdles outings this term.
