Top Question has attracted plenty of support in the opener at Limerick.

The eight-year-old gelding was last seen finishing fifth, beaten less than six lengths, in a beginners' chase at Tramore in April. A couple of horses than finished behind him have since come out to win handicap hurdles.

Top Question contests the extended two mile one furlong handicap chase at 4.40pm for which he has been backed down to 8/1 from 22/1.

Former point-to-point winner Top Question has never been placed over hurdles or fences. Sean Flanagan has been booked for the first time.

Elsewhere on the card, John Halley's Galloway Du Lia has been backed at big prices for the beginners' chase at 5.10pm.
