Leavethelighton can finally shine in the Sean Graham Bookmakers’ Maiden Hurdle at Down Royal this afternoon.

A CONSERVATION milestone was reached last week; two coveys of partridges, raised in captivity at Boora Bog in County Offaly, were released at a secret location in north county Dublin.

SAY AGAIN, winner of the Guinness Galway Hurdle last year, proved himself on course for a return to Ballybrit later this month when landing the Connacht Gold Maiden at Roscommon last night.
