Tranquil Seacan storm home

EDWARD O’Grady and Andrew McNamara are rapidly developing into a potent combination and the duo can combine to provide us with a winning nap in the shape of Tranquil Sea in the Durkan New Homes Maiden Hurdle at Leopardsstown on St Stephen’s Day.

The five-year-old made a very promising start over flights at Fairyhouse earlier in the month and will surely come on a bundle for the experience.

He travelled and jumped beautifully through the contest and, though never really threatening to get to grips with Noel Meade’s Tranquil Sea in the closing stages, was only beaten a length and three parts.
