Fly leads Punchestown cast
Tuesday, 10 November 2009 13:35Hurricane Fly and Solwhit feature among a high-class list of nine horses left in the Dobbins And Madigans At Punchestown Hurdle on Sunday.
The former enjoyed a hugely impressive novice campaign last season, winning each of his three starts culminating in a brilliant victory at the Punchestown Festival.
Solwhit also ended the campaign in blistering form as he registered Grade One successes at both Aintree and Punchestown.
Noel Meade has left in both Muirhead and Donnas Palm, while the in-form Edward O'Grady could be represented by Jumbo Rio.
Clopf, De Valira and 2007 Champion Hurdle winner Sublimity complete the home team for the race known as the Morgiana Hurdle, while the sole British entry is Donald McCain's mare Whiteoak.
