Wasthatok makes winning debut over hurdles

Having shown promise in bumpers, Wasthatok (3/1) made a winning start over obstacles in the first division of the maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan.
The Mount Nelson gelding was always prominent under Keith Donoghue and moved on from Bridgehead on the run to the last. Untroubled from that point, he scored by six lengths from Flidais with Bridgehead dropping to third on the run-in.
The Mount Nelson gelding is owned by Kiva Cromwell and trained by her husband, Gavin.
Donoghue said: “He ran well in a few bumpers but we thought he was up to winning one and he probably disappointed us a little bit.
“He’s a big horse, about 17 hands, and he probably just needed that bit of time. The bit of nicer ground suited him.
“He probably wasn’t in love with the track but it was a winnable race and he couldn’t have done it any easier.”
