NO IRISH RACING TODAY: And weather continuing to cause problems heading into 2016. SHAMROCK’s NAP and NEXT BEST won yesterday.
No awards for the prices but the NAP and the NEXT BEST selections both won yesterday.
NAP: Nichols Canyon WON 2/5
NEXT BEST: No More Heroes WON 4/9
Nichols Canyon had to work hard, despite his price, to win the Grade 1 Ryanair Hurdle. He had a titanic battle with Identity Thief and had to battle well to overhaul him on the run-in to win by two lengths.
Ladbrokes now make Nichols Canyon 5/1 second favourite for the Champion Hurdle behind stable companion Faugheen who is 4/6 for a repeat win. Identity Thief has shortened to 16/1.
No Irish racing today and the Tramore card on New Year’s Day is already in doubt.
There will be a 3pm inspection this afternoon with the course reported to be unraceable at present with more unsettled weather expected. The seven race card includes the Listed At The Races Chase.
