Flooring Porter to reappear in Lismullen Hurdle Flooring Porter will reappear in the Lismullen Hurdle at Navan on November 7th with trainer Gavin Cromwell indicating that this year's Stayers Hurdle winner will be kept to left-handed racecourses. Flooring Porter graduated from 95-rated handicapper to be a Grade 1 winner at the Cheltenham festival in March and while pulled up on his last run at the Punchestown festival, Cromwell reports “Flooring Porter will go to the Lismullen Hurdle, then we'll probably look at Leopardstown over Christmas. “It was the prelims really (at Punchestown), he got very worked up before the race and he's just not as effective going right-handed. “We won't go right-handed with him this season and the plan would be Navan, Leopardstown and Cheltenham.”
