Shecouldbeanything proves too strong for Listowel quintet The Gordon Elliott trained Shecouldbeanything returned to something like her best when proving too good for five rivals in the opening Anglo Printers Remembering John H. Kierans Mares Hurdle at Listowel. A previous five-time winner, the seven-year-old hadn't been at her best earlier in the year but shaped with plenty of promise when third on her recent reappearance at Killarney last month. Held up towards rear by Sam Ewing, as stablemate Media Naranja and Effernock Fizz chased clear leader Karia Des Blaises, Shecouldbeanything moved closer after four out. As Karia Des Blaises weakened from the next flight, Media Naranja was left in front, with her stablemate and the John McConnell trained Anna Bunina the nearest pursuers. Pushed along to go second entering the straight, Shecouldbeanything led two out, staying on well from the back of the last to win by four lengths from Media Naranja. Winning rider Sam Ewing said: "They went a really good gallop, so I had to bide my time with her and she stayed on gamely. She is a solid mare and today showed she will definitely stay further. "She is very versatile ground-wise, ran well in Cheltenham on soft and while she has form on every ground, that nicer ground brings out the best in her." Additional reporting by Thomas Weekes.
