Tramore’s four-day August festival gets underway with a seven-race programme and Ahead Of The Posse can make a winning start over fences when he contests the opening race, the Three Ireland Rated Novice Chase.

Gavin Cromwell’s horse has just one win to his name but his most recent effort, in a competitive handicap at the Galway festival, suggested he remains open to improvement. While, ultimately, he was no match for Neveradullmoment, he chased the winner all the way to the line and pulled a long way clear of the remainder. He still has a little to find with some of these on their best hurdling form, but he is going in the right direction and can improve enough to get the better of them.
