Moon Dice lands tasty gamble on return

MOON DICE, trained by Paul Flynn and having a first outing since finishing down the field behind Where’s The Dosh at Navan back in December, landed a gamble in the Ladies’ Day 10th October Maiden Hurdle at sun-drenched Limerick last night.

Taken at 12-1 in the morning, he was returned at 11-2 and the issue was never in doubt once Michael Darcy kicked him on off the home turn.

Said Flynn: “He was a bit weak last year, but has strengthened up well. This is the best horse I have, he was only half fit!”
