At Your Ease one to note in Ballinrobe Arthur Moore will be hoping At Your Ease can continue to make up for lost time when the lightly-raced six-year-old lines up for the BetVictor Handicap Chase at Ballinrobe today. The J P McManus-owned gelding has had only seven career starts but four of them have come since December when he won over hurdles at Naas. At Your Ease was switched to fences in January and got off the mark over the bigger obstacles at the third attempt when successful at Limerick last month. McManus also has Manger Et Trotter, trained by Enda Bolger, while the seven runners are headed by the Michael Winters-trained top-weight Damut. Winters gives Fintown Boy is fencing bow in the Supermac’s Beginners Chase who is having his first run since November. He had earlier won over hurdles at Fairyhouse and Thurles. Global Jackpot was only beaten a length in third place behind Or Jaune De Somoza at Fairyhouse last month. His trainer Gordon Elliott can expect an even better display as that was his first run since October. John Ryan’s Draycott Place is one of three horses shouldering the welter burden of 11st 12lb in the Adare Manor Opportunity Handicap Hurdle. The 10-year-old blew away the cobwebs at Sligo recently following a 195-day absence. However, he takes on 15 rivals all younger than him including Zoffalee. The Andrew McNamara-trained four-year-old ran his best race to date over hurdles when second at Wexford on his latest start. McNamara also has reason for optimism with Classic Concorde in the FBD Opportunity Handicap Hurdle after two recent placed efforts.
