Kusadasi lands Tramore gamble
Kusadasi landed a gamble (9/2 into 5/2) in the Make Racing At Tramore Your New Year Resolution Maiden Hurdle with a fine front-running effort under Mick Darcy. They prevailed by four lengths from Lascalahall
Original favourite, Guzzle An Go unseated rider at the fifth whilst the market-leader, Schumpters Lad could find no extra from before two out, eventually coming home a well-beaten fifth.
Successful handler, Dusty Sheehy said of Kusadasi: "He deserved that. He was a little unlucky at Downpatrick last time (2nd to Awkward Moment). He'll go a little further next time and step into novice company perhaps. Martin Gleeson, the part owner, is from Swinford in Co Mayo and he is out foreign at the moment. Hopefully this fellow will win another for us."
