See Double You scores despite market drift

Despite drifting from as short as 11/10 this morning out to his starting price of 5/2 favourite, See Double You followed up on his recent impressive Tramore win in equally as impressive fashion today in division two of the Kelloggs Cul Camps Handicap Hurdle. Sat 05th May

After race at Listowel Mon, 1st Jun, 2015 (1st)

I was going to leave him off after his win at Killarney as I thought the ground would get too hard but a few pieces of work recently had him right for today and the ground suited him. He'll be left off now and will come back for Open Lightweights and more hunters chases and I'd love to run him in the Foxhunters (Chase at Cheltenham) - he missed it last year as he had a virus.

After race at Killarney Mon, 11th May, 2015 (1st)

He hadn't run since Dungarvan in February but got the virus very bad and then missed a hunters chase at Mallow with a cut leg. He missed plenty of work and I didn't think he'd be ready to win today. He'll go to Listowel next for a hunters chase in June. That's my first winner - I'm based in Ballynoe, Co Cork and have had my license for six or seven years but have mostly point to pointers.
