Skylancer has plenty going for him in maiden hurdle

NOEL MEADE’S Skylancer can take the second division of the Charlie Chute Memorial Maiden Hurdle at the final stage of the Listowel Festival this afternoon.

He made a promising seasonal debut at Downpatrick last month and has plenty going for him now.

Dermot Weld’s Noble Crusader was a warm order for that particular contest, but Skylancer seemed to be travelling better than him heading to the final flight.
