There is both Flat and National Hunt action again today with jumping fans catered for at Wexford this afternoon and the three-day July Festival continues in Bellewstown this evening.

The €25,000 Irish EBF Median Sires Series Maiden (5.15) is the most valuable event on a seven race Bellewstown card beginning at 4.40 and World Tour looks the one to beat.

The Aidan O’Brien-trained colt filled third spot on debut at Down Royal last month and can be expected to progress from that experience.

O’Brien’s son Joseph may have the answer to the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden (7.32) with Jannah Star as the daughter of Sea The Stars has been placed on both outings this year including over this 1m4f trip at the Curragh last time.

The €22,000 Poolcourt Engineering Handicap Chase (4.25) is the feature at Wexford and Henry de Bromhead and Darragh O’Keeffe, who combined for a double at Tipperary yesterday, could again be on the mark with She’s A Fine Wine.

Jack Kennedy has returned this week after a lengthy lay-off and will be hoping to get back on the scoresheet in the opening Shamrock Enterprises Maiden Hurdle on the Gordon Elliott-trained Kamikaz Du Plessis at 1.35. May Call You Back landed the odds at Tipperary on Tuesday and will again be a short price to gain a quick follow up for Brian Hayes and Willie Mullins in the Molloy Metal Recycling Handicap Chase at 5.00.
