Fourth win over hurdles for Tullybeg

Topweight Tullybeg (9/2) won the Good Enuf 2 Eat Caterers At Gowran Park Handicap Hurdle under 5lb claimer Jordan Gainford.

The Sholokhov gelding moved into second two out as Jiving Jerry went to the front travelling well at that point.

The winner collared that rival at the last and stayed on well to repel the fast-finishing Hewick by half a length with Jiving Jerry back in third.

This was a fourth win over hurdles for the 6-year-old who switched back to the smaller obstacles after a couple of runs over fences in the summer.

Winning trainer Gordon Elliott said: "It was a good performance with the weight he had. He wants nice ground and when it gets soft we’ll probably give him a break.

“We’ll see if we can find something else for him before we leave him off. We might bring him over to Cheltenham this month.

“He got a fright when he got the fall (over fences at Punchestown in May) and we’ll wait until next year before going back over fences.”
