Thyne Again Arrives Early

Follow on Discover

Published at

Liam Burke is taking no chances with his stable star Thyne Again.

The gelding was sent to Cheltenham on Saturday morning to avoid any possible problems with high winds over the coming days.

Thyne Again is a leading Irish fancy for the Independent Arkle Trophy on Tuesday afternoon, but his participation still hinges on suitable ground.

Burke will not risk his charge on anything firmer than good to soft ground.
