A pillar to post win here for market leader Man About Town, but he had to work hard on the run-in with the line coming just in time for favourite backers. He made a favourable impression when making a winning bow for tom Taaffe in a decent Fairyhouse Bumper last January but his hurdling debut at Punchestown saw him fall at the first. "He has to grow up a bit to be a man as he had a right tug out there," said Tom Taaffe, who was understandably pleased with his jumping in the circumstances and nominated a winners race at Cork on November 21 next. |
