Weld has high hopes for season

Dermot Weld has outlined his hopes for the new Flat season and in addition to an exciting younger brigade, believes last year’s Irish Derby winner Grey Swallow is better than ever.

After winning the Leopardstown 2000 Guineas Trial on his first start last term, the son of Daylami was campaigned at the highest level and displayed a terrific turn of foot to deny North Light a Derby double at the Curragh in June.
