Impressive Home Farm off to winning start for de Bromhead

Home Farm, formerly trained by Arthur Moore, made a winning start for Henry de Bromhead when taking the Listed John Meagher Memorial Chase at Thurles yesterday.

Thick fog enveloped the track for the opening four races, but that problem was superbly solved by some quite brilliant camera work, ensuring that patrons had a far better view than could have been reasonably anticipated.

Home Farm was a strong order in the betting, joining Hidden Cyclone at the top of the market.
