Let’s just hope Samcro and Laurina clash at Punchestown

Samcro's success in the Ballymore Novice Hurdle at Prestbury Park was mildly disappointing, writes Pat Keane

The talk coming out of Fairyhouse earlier this week is there is at least the possibility Samcro and Laurina might take each-other on at the Punchestown festival at the end of the month and we can only pray that will prove the case.

These are two terrific young horses and if they meet it will tell us more about them than any of the races they have contested so far.
