Bentley power can see him purr to fourth straight Waterford win

DARING BENTLEY is in the form of his life and Michael Meade's charge can complete a four-timer by landing Waterford's A2 over 525 yards at 2.03.

He again escapes a penalty and, while it may look strange to see a middle seed drawn in one, he has a quartet of wins wearing the red jacket so it does not need to be an issue.

All bar one of his rivals also won last time out so it is a hot race but he can enjoy racing room early on the inside, turn in a decent pitch then assert along the back straight.

Additional Waterford fancies are Ballygur Tommy (11.29), Bay Cruiser (11.47) and Almighty Tom (12.38), while Snuggie Archie (3.03) and Varra Lasrach (3.22) can complete an early trip one double at Thursday's other Irish SIS meeting at Limerick.

First track under way is Oxford where Karen Dodington's Selker Bay Daisy can make it there wins in four by going from the front at 11.54, while Anna Jeffery's Hanover Tom (3.29) and Robert McCarthy's Glengiblin Frank (8.09) can score at Valley and Star Pelaw respectively.
