Co Kilkenny trainer Michael Moran was in the winner's enclosure this afternoon after his charge Thepartysover landed the Ardglass Novice Handicap Hurdle in great style.
Mick Darcy who was never too far off the pace aboard the Cloudings gelding cruised to the front between the last two flights and stayed on strongly to record a seven length win over Spring Wine
A delighted Moran reported afterwards: "He will eventually jump a fence but we'll keep him to handicap hurdling for the time being."
"Mick [Darcy] gave him a great ride, he's the main man in our yard. I worked with him in Dusty Sheehy's and he's ridden four or five winners for me now."
