McCoy looks good on Oscar

TONY McCOY can make his flying visit to Thurles today pay dividends by partnering Oscar’s Advance to win the INH Stallion Farms Owners’ EBF Novice Hurdle.

Christy Roche’s progressive charge is a stout stayer, who loves to run near the front, and will take plenty beating in this two miles, six and a half furlongs test.

The dual bumper winner got off the mark over flights at Punchestown earlier in the month, scoring by 20 lengths.
