Klassy proves too strong

Sun 12th Oct 2008, 15:26

Private trainer & hotelier Bryan Murphy recorded a win at his local track at Limerick today, when his Klassy under Joe Holly, landed the Oakbruce Properties Handicap Hurdle.

The son of Kahyasi raced in mid-division before progressing to eventually get to the front on the run-in, for a half length win over All Sorts Star

Afterwards a pleasantly surprised Murphy, who owns the Dunraven Arms Hotel in nearby Adare, mentioned "Klassy is only back in three weeks and I thought the run would bring him on a lot!"

He added "he will stay hurdling until Christmas but may go chasing then."
