After race at Cork Tue, 2nd Aug, 2016 (1st)

She had been a bit unlucky a couple of times but Rory gave her a very good ride today from a very bad draw - he did well to get her across. She got stopped at Tipperary the last day and was unlucky. Her dam is a half-sister to Hurricane Fly and we have a few more half-brothers and sisters at home coming along. We'll aim her at something similar next.
