NH stars in good shape for the new season

Moscow Flyer and Hardy Eustace, two of the stars of last season´s National Hunt season, are reported in good form by connections as they prepare for a fresh campaign.

Moscow Flyer will again start off in the Fortria Chase at Navan next month followed by the Tingle Creek at Sandown, although Jessica Harrington is opened minded about further plans.

´The King George and the Lexus (formerly Ericsson) are possibles, and it could depend on the ground where he goes,´ said the Moone trainer.

Hardy Eustace will start out on the defence of his Champion Hurdle crown by reappearing in the Hattons Grace Hurdle at Fairyhouse on November 28, and Dessie Hughes reports him in fine fettle.

A full preview of the top Irish-trained jumping prospects will appear on this site in a few days.
