Sherodan gained a richly deserved first success over timber when taking the John and Pat Rochford Memorial Maiden Hurdle, the second race on Monday’s card in Ballinrobe.
Having been runner-up in a listed novice hurdle in Galway, the Peter Fahey-trained gelding was entitled to have leading claims back in this company, but he had a serious market rival in two-time bumper winner Four Clean Aces.
