Solwhit likely to tackle Quevega at Punchestown

Charles Byrnes indicated at Limerick yesterday that Solwhit, so impressive at Aintree on Saturday, is likely to tackle Quevega in a three-mile Grade 1 hurdle at Punchestown later this month.

He was speaking after his Shanpallas had stepped up on three previous efforts to land the Family Fun Day Maiden Hurdle.

"We will see how he (Solwhit) is in a week, but the plan is to go to Punchestown”, revealed Byrnes.
