4.15 Fairyhouse

The horse in question is a horse that we are all familiar with, and that is Anyway who runs in the Book Your Winter Festival Tickets Handicap Hurdle for runners rated 80-116 over a trip of two miles. You might remember this horse because he pulled off one of the gambles of the year at Downpatrick in August.

It was a great day for Charles Byrnes, who himself had a couple of winners at the course, but Anyway slid under the radar because he is now trained by David Kenneth Budds. Little did many know that Byrnes was the former owner of the horse and he was backed from huge prices all the way into an even money favourite, and duly obliged by over eight lengths.

Anyway disappointed at Listowel on soft ground when sent off a warm favourite again last time, but it’s interesting to see money come for him again today. As big as 8s this morning, he is now best priced 11-2 but is as short as 10-3 in places. Could connections be having a punt on him again today? Who knows!
