PJ McGeever 70th Birthday Celebration Handicap Hurdle Race

Artiste d'Ainay won last time out, having also scored three starts back, and again five starts back, and he has run over today's going before, back within 7 days. A seventh two starts back is the main blot, but he looks the one to beat.

East Eagle won four starts back, and was runner-up five starts back too, and has also run over today's distance before. He was pulled up last time out, though, and returns after a 40-day absence, leaving question marks over form and fitness.

Luna Run won last time out and has also run over today's distance and going before, a clear positive. The query is patchy form further back — a seventh four starts back — and it's now 46 days since that success.

He Is A Cracker won last time out, and added another win four starts back, and has also run over today's distance before, quick to return in just 16 days. The pulled-up effort two starts back is the query, but the recent book reads well.
