Farmer scores for Brassil/Madden The Martin Brassil trained Mister Farmer won the Eadestown Handicap Chase at Punchestown today, under a well judged ride from Niall Madden. The son of Trempolino (the third French bred winner of the day) jumped to the front two out before stretching clear from the last for a four and a half lengths win. Afterwards Brassil stated “Mister Farmer always threatened to win a hurdle off his mark and while I though he would improve from his second last start, didn’t improve in a similar type race at Leopardstown on his next start.” “The switch back to fences made the difference and he seems to enjoy chasing – we’ll find something suitable again next.” Thomas Weekes
