Taaffe can shine on Solar System
A useful staying hurdler, the selection promises to be more effective at this game, on the evidence of his first venture over fences, at Punchestown last month. Solar System was beaten a short head and nine lengths into third spot behind Nil Desperandum and Central House.
The form could hardly have worked out better. Central House scored next time, while Nil Desperandum subsequently indicated he is the best novice seen this campaign, in Ireland, when taking the Drinmore ’Chase at Fairyhouse by 14 lengths.
