General Montcalm can lead them home

GENERAL MONTCALM gets the nap to land the Garryrichard Stud Tetratema Cup Hunters ’Chase on a seven-race programme confined to point-to-pointers at Gowran Park this afternoon.

Edward O’Grady’s charge stays really well and should, at worst, give us a big run. In early February, at Thurles, the six-year-old indicated he was on the upgrade when finishing strongly to beat Castle Weir comfortably.

Less than three weeks later, this time at Fairyhouse, that impression was confirmed when the selection had Castle Weir 11 lengths behind in fourth spot when half a length second to Glenduff Bridge (levels).
