Tranquil Sea finds his level

TRANQUIL SEA, outclassed when eighth of 22 behind Captain Cee Bee at Cheltenham, found his level in the Dunraven Arms Hotel Novice Hurdle at Limerick yesterday.

He ran with the choke out for much of the journey in the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle at Prestbury Park, but Andrew McNamara rode him with a lot more restraint on this occasion.

Held up in mid-division, Edward O’Grady’s charge cruised into the lead approaching the second last.
