Piercing Sun to shine through

TONY MULLINS’ Piercing Sun should be hard to beat in the Saltan Properties INH Stallion Owners’ EBF Novice Hurdle at Tramore this afternoon.

The five-year-old is clearly going the right way and his latest performance, at Leopardstown, was very encouraging.

For a horse who raced through the summer, he handled the testing conditions really well. The selection stayed on doggedly in the closing stages to beat Cane Break by a length.
