Trip and ground should be ideal for Candy Girl
Willie Mullins’ horses are in fantastic shape right now and his Candy Girl is the nap choice in the opener, the Blackwater Hurdle. A very smart mare, she should be all the better for a belated reappearance at Leopardstown at Christmas. The nine-year-old was beaten three lengths and a length and three parts into third spot behind Grangeclare Lark and Brave Betsy.
Candy Girl is entitled to come on plenty for that much needed run and two miles and testing ground are the ideal ingredients to bring out the best in her.
