Odds-on Ally takes Thurles opener
The Noel Meade trained Ally Cascade just got the better of market rival Urano to take the first at Thurles this afternoon, the 4yo Cahir Maiden Hurdle. Fri 30th Nov
The jump at the last won it for me. He has plenty of good form without getting his head in front that much but it is nice to see him doing that and hopefully he can move on again from here.
W P Mullins
That is the seventh time of asking but obviously the trainer was getting it wrong all the time as he now appears to want a trip. We had been making the running with him over two miles but dropping him in over a further trip seems to be the key to him. He works like a two mile horse at home but he looked good at that trip today and we now know he stays. We were hoping he would do that after his run the last day when we thought that if he got daylight he would have shot clear.
