Go for Morning Run with Ruby

Successful on his comeback ride on Sunday, Ruby Walsh should strike again on Morning Run in today’s opener in Tipperary, the Follow Tipperary On Facebook Mares Maiden Hurdle.

Trained by Willie Mullins, Morning Run justified favouritism in a valuable mares event on her debut at the Punchestown Festival back in May, beating previous and the subsequent winner Carrigmoorna Rock, fourth behind Rich Coast on a Grade 3 novice hurdle on this track on Sunday.

She followed-up at Down Royal six weeks later, when justifying odds-on favouritism. And the five-year-old completed her bumper hat-trick in no-nonsense style at Wexford in August, beating subsequent Listowel winner Allez Encore.
