5.35 Ballinrobe: Make Good
The McHale Mayo Handicap Hurdle at Ballinrobe on Monday is a cracking race, and Toll Stone, who finished third at the Punchestown Festival when last seen, is understandably available at short odds here.
However, if trainer Cian Collins can work his ability with Make Good, he will go very close, and he's available at a general 16-1.
The selection is also one of few proven stayers in this contest.
6.05 Ballinrobe: Scalpnagoon
There are plenty of iffy, Flat-bred horses in this contest - the McHale Tiger Roll Beginners Chase - and at 11-1 each-way, you should at least get a solid run from Scalpnagoon.
The six-year-old was backed into 3-1 against classy stablemate Staffordshire Knot last time out at Down Royal, and ran well to finish second.
