An interesting maiden hurdle run at a sensible rather than a strong pace and Royal Alphabet made a most encouraging jumping debut. He was a little big at the early hurdles but soon became much more fluent. He led three out, won hard held and looks capable of winning plenty more. Trainer Willie Mullins said, "I will put his Flat season on hold and run him next in a novice hurdle at Listowel. He is best on goodish ground so he will have a break in the winter and come back better fore the Festival if he keeps improving". |
