Preview Down Royal and Limerick: There will be anxious faces fearing a repeat at Down Royal this afternoon when the meeting re-scheduled from yesterday is due to be run off.

A security alert yesterday resulted in the cancellation of the card after just one race and provided an eerie echo of the James Nicholson meeting at the track in early November which was abandoned entirely due to a bomb scare.

Out of the resultant chaos with regard to travel arrangements, jockey bookings and everything else, one man looking for a happy outcome will be the Co Dublin trainer Peter Casey, who gives his high-class flat horse Bleesyourpinksox a second jumping start in the two-mile maiden hurdle.

Blessyourpinksox's first hurdle race yielded a promising fourth to Merdeka at Fairyhouse and on the back of that experience she looks a bet to add to four previous wins on the flat.

The first race will be run off at 1pm and Teeming Rain looks a hard horse to beat in the Beginners Chase if able to reproduce some of the best of his hurdles form.

The good form shown by Noel Meade's string yesterday will only boost the confidence behind the chances of Shiloh in the bumper. The form of his third at Fairyhouse was boosted by the Limerick winner Dr Willie Martin yesterday and his overall claims look hard to argue with.

Limerick's most valuable race today is the 40,000 Listed handicap chase and the local horse Just can complete a hat-trick for his trainer Michael Hourigan.

Just followed a narrow hurdles win at Cork with an easier chase victory at Thurles and a 9lb penalty for that doesn't look to have damaged his chance.

Only seven line up for the conditions hurdle and the David Wachman-trained Drunken Disorderly looks like he will be hard to beat even with the presence of the double bumper winner Monsieur Monet.

Drunken Disorderly's defeat of Leatitia and Iktitf at Clonmel reads even better now and a run behind Oscar's Advance at Thurles came over a longer trip than this.

Conditions at Limerick yesterday were testing in the extreme and that should suit the stamina-packed Mutineer who didn't run a bad race behind Missed That at Navan.

A Gem Of A Story ran an encouraging comeback at Downpatrick earlier in the month but then disappointed just four days later at Thurles.

It's worth forgiving that effort with such a short gap in between races and A Gem Of A Story can compete successfully in the handicap hurdle.
