How's Hannah looks decent in the mares' bumper How's Hannah ran away with the mares' bumper at Punchestown on racecourse debut for Willie and Patrick Mullins. She raced in second behind clear leader Speisialta with more than five furlongs to travel and took closer order in the final half-mile. How's Hannah moved to the front at the three pole and travelled well as she increased her margin in the straight. The Sans Frontieres mare was clear over a furlong out and routed the field by 13 lengths. Think It Through was a distant second at 9/1, but was some 11 lengths in front of Easily Distracted (33/1 - 16/1). Patrick Mullins said: “She was very good. I bought her off Tim Townend and he was very sweet on her, and he knows the time of day. “Then Aubrey (McMahon) took her off me for the Temple Syndicate, who are having great luck at the moment. “You can see her there, she’s 17 hands. She’s seven-years-old, but you can see why, with the size of her. “Whether we go hurdling now and chasing next year or stay in bumpers, we’ll have to wait and see. “The really strong gallop and the soft ground really suited her. “She’s not slow either, her work at home says that. She just has a bit of everything. “I think Tim Townend might have the brother going to the sales in February, so I was under pressure to run her before that!” How's Hannah ran in two point-to-points for Townend, finishing runner-up at Kildorrery before winning at Ballynoe last March.
