Market drifter Miss Pronunciation (13/8f — 100/30) gained consecutive wins at Punchestown today, landing Ladbrokes' Play 'Instant Spins' Handicap Hurdle for owner/breeders JP and Noreen McManus, trainer Padraig Roche and jockey Mark Walsh.
In contrast to being well-supported when winning at Limerick in October, Miss Pronunciation was today replaced as favourite by gambled Ellaat (6/1 — 9/4f), which could manage only third-place.
Front-runner Perzzini held a clear lead over 15 rivals for much of the race but was readily swept aside in the home straight, as Miss Pronunciation moved to lead and scored by a length and a half from Lazer Wolf
Roche reported “Mark (Walsh) said it was a bit of a messy race but I thought she’d come on a bit from Limerick.
“She had a couple of setbacks and I’d say it’s done her no harm as she was weak and immature. She’s turning into a grand mare and hopefully she can keep progressing.”
