The Philip Fenton trained Gusda under Shay Barry, ran out the seven length winner of the featured Blackwater Handicap Hurdle at Cork today.
The son of Lend A Hand chased the leaders, progressed to lead before the final flight before staying on well to defeat hat-trick seeking Mystical Breeze
Afterwards Fenton reported "Gusda was narrowly beaten a few times last year and deserved a win. He'll keep running in handicap hurdles for now but will go chasing eventually."
