Reports in which Sporting Glance (FR) was mentioned

After race at Downpatrick Fri, 19th Sep, 2025 (1st)

Exactly, the 7lb off (claim) just levelled it there. He was impressive there and did it very well. Eoin thought he had gears there again today, so he is probably versatile enough. It is nice to see him do that on a bit of softer ground as well. That is soft enough out there now and it takes a bit of getting. We won't rush him, we won't overface him but he is a nice horse to have and hopefully he keeps progressing.
