Pandorama wins Maiden Hurdle at Navan

Pandorama could hardly have been more impressive in taking the Navan opener for Noel Meade and Paul Carberry.

The five-year-old justified his skinny odds of 4-9 by scooting to a 12-length victory over Judge Roy Bean on his debut over jumps in the I.N.H. Stallion Owners EBF Maiden Hurdle.

Consequently, his price for the Ballymore Properties Novices’ Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival was slashed from 14-1 to 8-1 with Stan James.
