Consistent Ethan can show his Waterford rivals the way home

SLANEYSIDE ETHAN is the epitome of consistency having only missed out on a podium finish three times in his last 20 starts and he should go really well again in Waterford's A6 over 525 yards at 1.12.

Derek Kehoe's dog knows how to win as well as making the frame with three victories in his last four and a 50 per cent strike rate in the grade.

The veteran is unlikely to ever hit previous heights again but is still really effective at the right level which today's contest clearly counts as.

Other picks at Kilcohan Park are Margaret Flynn's Almighty Lorcan (11.29) and Patrick Murray's Fly Boyo (12.04).

There is afternoon Irish racing at Limerick where John Cronin's Thunderin Chuck (3.59) and Eugene Corkery's Passing Kate (5.14) both appeal, while the evening action comes from Valley where Christian Darch's Faradays Larry (8.34) goes unpenalised for a recent D4 success.
