Florimund motors home

Backers of Florimund would have been forgiven for tearing up their dockets on the approach to the straight as Mickey Butler was rowing along well off the pace, but when switched from outer to inner after two out, he began to motor. In front before the last in the www.fairyhouseracecourse.ie Handicap Hurdle, the son of Sadler's Wells galloped on well to win by five and a half lengths from Knocklayde Euro. Thu 10th Dec

After race at Fairyhouse Fri, 13th Feb, 2009 (1st)

He is from a good family and he is a staying chaser in the making. He relishes that heavy ground and he stays forever. This year is all about trying to rob a race or two before going chasing.
