Hidden Cyclone whips up a storm at Killarney

With the cobwebs brushed away with a gutsy display in the McSweeney Arms Hotel Race on day two at Killarney, Galway options are aplenty for Shark Hanlon’s evergreen 11-year-old Hidden Cyclone.

Ridden to lead over a furlong out by Patrick Mullins, he did just enough to hold off heavily backed favourite Affinisea by a short head.

“He’s a fantastic horse to ride. For a horse 11 years of age which has done a lot of racing, he moves like a four-year-old,” said Mullins.
