- O'Regan times it well on Cullen's mare

O'Regan times it well on Cullen's mare

She’stherightone (9/1) came from well back to land the Ladbrokes Home Of The Odds Boost Handicap Hurdle (80-102) (DIV II).
Denis O’Regan’s mount was only ninth jumping two out, but stayed on well from that point to move into third at the final flight. A fluent leap there carried her to the front early on the run-in and she just held the late challenge of Galypso Clermont (12/1), who was awkward at the last, by a neck.
Winning trainer Denis Cullen said: “I’m delighted with that - she won first time out last year as well (at Ballinrobe). Denis O’Regan gave her a fabulous ride and the team at home are great, it’s a real team effort.
“We always thought she wanted a bit of nice ground so we were waiting. She’s a summer mare and did well last year.
“Denis said she’s probably best fresh. He’s patient and lets her warm up into the race, saving her wherever he can. A lot of credit goes to him for that one.”
