Lossiemouth Leads Mullins' Morgiana Charge
20 Nov
Summary
- Lossiemouth and Irancy represent trainer Willie Mullins in the Morgiana Hurdle.
- Anzadam, initially a favorite, was a notable withdrawal from the declarations.
- Gordon Elliott's Ndaawi and David Harry Kelly's Glen Kiln complete the field.
Willie Mullins is once again a dominant force in the Unibet Morgiana Hurdle at Punchestown, fielding two strong contenders: Lossiemouth and Irancy. Lossiemouth, a mare with six Grade One victories, heads the betting with jockey Paul Townend. She is joined by stablemate Irancy, who has previously won over this course and distance and will be ridden by Mark Walsh.
The race sees a notable absence in Anzadam, who was previously considered a favorite but did not feature in the final declarations. This leaves the field with a select group of talented runners, maintaining Mullins' strong presence in the event he has won 13 times previously.
Challenging Mullins' charges are Gordon Elliott's Ndaawi, a winner of the Galway Hurdle, and David Harry Kelly's Glen Kiln, a recent course victor. This compact field promises an exciting contest for the Grade One prize.
