THERE was no fairytale return for me at Newbury yesterday when Don’t Turn Bach finished well behind in a handicap hurdle.

Former smart bumper horse and decent novice hurdler Quadrillon got off the mark over fences at the second attempt with a hard-fought success at Gowran Park.

IF Punchestown today survives an 8am inspection then much of the focus will obviously centre on the second outing over jumps of the exciting Dunguib in the Ballymaloe Country Relish Hurdle.

APT APPROACH is napped to beat Faltering Fullback in what has the makings of a fascinating tussle for the McSweeney Arms Hotel Hurdle at Killarney tonight.
