You where rather close.  This works to get the records since midnight.

select entity from summary where start_time>timestamp(current date, '00:00:00')


The following gets all records since 18:00 the previous day:

select entity from summary where start_time>timestamp(current date - 1 day, 
'18:00:00')


The following gets all records since 2 hours ago (you get the point):

select entity from summary where start_time>timestamp(current date, current 
time - 2 hours)


Hope this helps.
