There will be some special guests at tomorrow’s Dubai Duty Free Irish Open Pro Am at Royal County Down, as two teams of young golfers from Shannon Golf Club in Clare and Faithlegg Golf Club in Waterford reap their reward for winning the inaugural Irish Open Golf Skills Challenge.

RIVAGE D’Or will be strongly fancied to make a winning start over fences in the www.tipperaryraces.ie Beginners Chase in Tipperary today.

Seafield will get the chance to show he is fit to be mentioned in the same breath as his half-brother Joncol in Sunday’s Friends Of Navan ’Monksfield’ Novice Hurdle.

A SUCCESSFUL chasing debut for 148-rated hurdler Noble Prince proved the highlight of doubles for trainer Paul Nolan and bang-in-form Paul Carberry at Punchestown yesterday.
