Review leopardstown 28th Jan
Jessica Harrington hit the jackpot when the lightly weighted Citizenship took the feature Boylesports.com Hurdle at Leopardstown under Robbie PowerSat 28th Jan
Sir Des Champs progressing beautifully
Sir Des Champs 'missed' the last a little bit but he still found what was required on the run-in to beat the fellow Gigginstown House Stud-owned runner Fists Of Fury and his big market rival Hidden Cyclone in the Grade 2 Boylesports.com Bet On Your Mobile Novice Chase at Leopardstown. The successful French-bred remains unbeaten in the National Hunt sphere and he was bringing up a treble here for Willie Mullins, victorious in the first couple of races with Darroun and Aupcharlie. Sat 28th Jan
Charlie makes it two for Willie
He may have looked a bit vulnerable going to the last but the step-up to two and a half miles done Aupcharlie the world of good. The son of Daliapour stayed on really well under Andrew Lynch from the back of the last where Whispering Hills wasn't as fluent. Aupcharlie then crossed the line three and a quarter lengths to the good from Whispering Hills in the I.T.B.A. Expo 2012 Maiden Hurdle at Leopardstown. Sat 28th Jan
Darroun Triumph bound
The betting said that the Leopardstown.com Maiden Hurdle was a match between Darroun and Hisaabaat and so it proved out on the track too with the former edging things by a length and a quarter under Paul Townend. Sat 28th Jan

Gamble landed by Shadow Catcher
Shadow Catcher landed a gamble on debut in the two mile maiden hurdle at Punchestown with Paul Carberry in the saddle for trainer Gordon Elliott. Sat 31st Dec
Better ground suits and he's improving all the time. He'll jump a fence in time. Paul really got him jumping today and he seems to be more confident jumping on better ground. He'll go for the Triumph. Paul said he appeared to lose his action a bit turning in but he seems to be okay.
