Torphichen set to make mark over fences

EDWARD O’Grady’s Torphichen gets the nap to make a winning debut over fences in the Askeaton Beginners chase at Limerick this afternoon, should the meeting survive a 7.30am inspection.

A more than useful sort over flights for David Pipe in England, the selection has just run three times in this country.

He began with a cracking effort on the flat at Galway and followed by cruising to a six lengths defeat of Arabella Boy at Naas last December.
