Stick with improving Dedigout

HE rapidly improving Dedigout can land the nap in the Grade 2 Slaney Novice Hurdle at Naas tomorrow.

He got off the mark at the first time of asking over jumps when taking a modest maiden at Punchestown and then successfully stepped up in class at Navan.

Lightly-raced and still showing signs of greenness, Tony Martin’s charge found plenty from the back of the final flight to beat Mart Lane by three and a half lengths.
