Made all, edged clear 2 out, stayed on well from last, easily (trainer said, regarding the improvement in form, gelding was very keen when held up at Thurles last time and as a result they changed the riding tactics today back to making the running and the horse settled well in front, adding that the Thurles race was its first since the previous October and its first over hurdles having previously run in bumpers.)
