The Willie Mullins trained Apt Approach made it a winning season debut when winning The Easter Festival Maiden Hurdle in great style under Ruby Walsh in the colours of the Greenstar Syndicate.
Mullins said afterwards, "I actually missed the race as I was late arriving but Ruby [Walsh] said he was very happy with him and you wouldn't even know it was soft ground on him as he handled it so well. We'll probably bring him back for a quick run and then go for the 2 ? mile Grade 2 Novice here at the Festival."
