Toulon looks poised to pounce

DELGANY TOULON, nicely perched towards the bottom of the weights, could provide the solution to the Richard Power Bookmakers’ Handicap Hurdle at Tramore tonight.

Philip Rothwell’s seven-year-old, successful over flights at Leopardstown last Christmas, made a highly encouraging return at the recent Galway Festival.

Going off a largely unconsidered 16-1 shot, the selection ran a smashing race to finish three lengths second behind Orpington in a 12 furlongs maiden.
