Two for McManus and Walsh at Naas

The former Gerry Neilan-trained 'pointer,' A Grey Matter (third behind Tell Us More 'between the flags'), brought up a Naas double for J P McManus and Mark Walsh when landing a gamble in the Follow Naas On Facebook Handicap Hurdle. Sat 17th Jan

After race at Naas Sat, 17th Jan, 2015 (1st)

Most of his promising runs were around Naas last year but I wasn't sure about the ground. He's improved from his run at Leopardstown, and has taken a while to learn his trade. He'll make a grand chaser in time.
