It's all changing with the jumping action taking over from the flat boys in the UK and Ireland. Both Aintree and Limerick host interesting natioanl hunt cards this Sunday.

We take aim at the Munster National run at Limerick racecourse in memory of JT McNamara.

Darrens Hope can run well carrying less than 11 stone with plenty of rain forecast overnight. An Oscar mare, she has run well on soft ground before winning a listed 3m hurdle race at Cork as well as a Grade 3 2m6f hurdle race here over 2m6f on heavy ground. Darrens Hope showed good form least season finishing runner up to Lifetime Ambition here in a Grade 3 novice chase. Previously, she ran a cracker to finish third in the Leinster National over three miles on heavy at Naas. Her latest run over fences came at Galway earlier this month when she galloped up the hill finishing second to a good horse called Frontal Assault. That was here second run of the season and will see her primed for the Munster National.

Limerick 3:35

0.5 point each way Darrens Hope 9/1 William Hill 6 places else 10/1 Ladbrokes & Coral, both 5 places.
