Sinabhfuilbertie makes sensational return to action

LOCAL hero Sinabhfuilbertie made a sensational return to action with a 28.21 first round effort in the Guinness Trophy, which kicked-off at Curraheen Park on Saturday night.

Out of action since the Laurels semi-finals last year, Sinabhfuilbertie emerged fresh as a daisy from his winter break to go within a length of the track record.

Very fast away from his wide draw, he was quickly in control and, having easily made the bend ahead of Frisky Lucky, that was that. Mountleader Gara took up the chase from the second bend but could make no impression and was three and a half lengths down at the line.
