Flyer Shines In Leopardstown Workout

Moscow Flyer advertised his wellbeing as he put in a clear round over four fences in a schooling session after racing at Leopardstown.

Jessica Harrington's 12-year-old has been beaten in both his starts this season but he is due to try for a third win in the Queen Mother Champion Chase at Cheltenham on Wednesday week.

Regular pilot Barry Geraghty was aboard as he worked with stablemate Strike Back, finishing upsides after the four obstacles.

Dual Smurfit Kappa Champion Hurdle winner Hardy Eustace also galloped while Our Ben and Hedgehunter were among five Willie Mullins-trained runners who completed nearly a circuit of the track over fences.

Mullins' JCB Triumph Hurdle favourite Mister Hight also enjoyed a spin on the level under Ruby Walsh, finishing alongside his lead horse in fine style.

The trainer sent his leading Weatherbys Champion Bumper hopes out together with Walsh getting the leg up on Ballytrim.

Equus Maximus, Irish Invader and Shady Willow made up the group as they worked over the best part of a circuit with handicapper Adamant Approach.

Edward O'Grady sent his Anglo Irish Bank Supreme Novices' Hurdle contender O'Muircheartaigh for a gallop with Coral Cup entry Sky's The Limit and the latter finished well clear.

Tom Mullins put the finishing touches to Asian Maze's preparation as she pulled away from her stable companion in the straight.
