Noel Meade sent out a double at Roscommon last Monday and the Castletown trainer may repeat the feat a week later at Tipperary with Moyross and First Approach
Death Duty won the www.tipperaryraces.ie Beginners Chase 12 months ago before going on to land the Grade One Drinmore Novice Chase and, while the seven runners in this year's renewal may struggle to reach those heights, Moyross looks an interesting sort.
The Kayf Tara gelding, a point-to-point winner for Enda Bolger, scored twice over hurdles last season and was thought good enough to take on Grade One opposition on a couple of occasions.
The seven-year-old looks the sort to do better over fences, and has the stamina to appreciate this two-mile-seven-furlong trip.
First Approach also carries the familiar colours of Patricia Hunt in the Season Finale Flat Race.
The son of Robin Des Champs has also won between the flags, and showed plenty of promise when placed twice in bumpers last term, including when third to Rapid Escape at Down Royal. Doctor Duffy was still travelling well when slipping up over a furlong out at Listowel last month, while Miss Chevious Girl is another to consider.
The opening Join The Tipperary Supporter’s Club 2019 Maiden Hurdle looks a competitive heat, with Monbeg Worldwide bidding to overcome a 10-month break.
The Gordon Elliott-trained gelding looked an exciting sort when landing a Lismore point-to-point and following up with three bumper wins.
The Lucarno six-year-old was placed on both hurdle outings last term, although he has yet to race on good ground.
