'Onwards and upwards' for Sporting Glance
Strong-travelling Sporting Glance rewarded favourite backers at 4/1 in Division 2 of the Galway Handicap Hurdle. Mon 08th Sep
After race at Killarney Sun, 5th Oct, 2025 (1st) 
He had a good run as a four-year-old in a bumper but he hadn't respect for his hurdles afterwards and going over fences today has really made a horse out of him. He was a bit disappointing the last day in Galway but he is only a five-year-old so hopefully can improve. He was the youngest horse in the field today. The owners have been great to me and are mainly from Clonakilty and another is London-based.
