The Sherry Fitzgerald Brady O’Flaherty Maiden Hurdle which opens this afternoon’s card in Punchestown is a hot-looking contest, but Eskylane sets the standard and can make a winning start to the season.
A point to point winner, Gordon Elliott’s runner finished in front of subsequent Champion Bumper runner-up Appreciate It when just touched off by Assemble on his track debut. He then won his bumper next time and ran a huge race to finish fifth to Ferny Hollow in the Champion Bumper.
