Doyle excels on Brynes' Solwhit

Sat 29th Nov 2008, 15:43

Jockey Tom Doyle excelled on the Charles Byrnes trained Solwhit winner of the Ladbrokes 1800 777 888 Handicap Hurdle at Fairyhouse today.

Thick fog was the order of the day and, while visiblity was again poor, Doyle produced the talented son of Solon with a well timed challenge to lead on the run-in, for a three parts of a length win.

Winning trainer Charles Byrnes was on hand to briefly comment "Solwhit will go up in the weights following that and I've no plans from here."
