Review KILBEGGAN 10TH AUG Paul Carberry dominated proceedings at Kilbeggan yesterday evening when partnering a 323/1 treble aboard Butterscotch, Ask The Moon and Back To Bavaria.Back To Bavaria was the highlight of the three, with the John Bowles-trained mare sweeping past the majority of her nine rivals after the home turn to beat Wall St Station by two lengths in the Hibernian Gunne Handicap Hurdle.'My horses have been suffering from a low blood count for the past month, and this is the first one to come back from it', said Bowles, who added: 'Paul is just different class'.The Meathman elected to make all on Butterscotch in the Kilbeggan Maiden Hurdle, drawing clear after a fine leap at the penultimate flight to beat Cool Dante by a length and a half.'He ran well at Ballinrobe, but was very disappointing at Galway on the Flat. He was never travelling last time, and that was the plan to make the running today', said trainer Donie Hassett.Curragh trainer Michael Halford is enjoying his best season ever, and Ask The Moon added to his tally when leading three out before holding Missjudged Lady by a head in the Hamill Oil Handicap Hurdle. Born Flyer also successfully adopted front-running tactics in the Tullamore Mares Maiden Hurdle, maintaining a clear advantage throughout for Tom Treacy to beat Ferdia's Friend by five lengths. alanmagee@ireland.com
