Dark can light up Mallow

ALTHOUGH without a win since February of last year, Won In The Dark stands out in tonight’s Dermot Casey - Hire Sales and Tree Services Hurdle in Mallow.

Trained by Sabrina Harty, the Montjeu-gelding is a six-time winner over hurdles, having registered his most significant win in a Grade 1 juvenile event at the 2008 Punchestown Festival.

Won In The Dark has competed at the top level in recent seasons and ran a cracker when, upped to three miles, he finished twelve lengths third behind champion stayer Big Bucks and Grands Crus in the Liverpool Hurdle at Aintree in April.
