Lisnagar Fortune

11/4

He’s a half-brother to Lisnagar Oscar who won the Stayers’ Hurdle at Cheltenham a couple of years ago. This is a nice type of bumper horse with plenty of stamina. I hope he’ll give a good account of himself.

19:45 VADSA QUEEN

Vadsa Queen
Age: 4|  Weight: 11-0| J: Miss J Townend(5)| T: W P Mullins| OR:  -
9/2

She’s by Estidhkaar and could be a summer bumper and hurdle filly. She works like her good pedigree suggests. Jody’s 5lb claim should help here too.
