1st 5 Hazelhatch Lady (IRE) 7 M AVG James Andrew Fahey 157 lbs 33/1 Won Made all - went clear 8th - much reduced lead 3 out - pushed along after 2 out - ridden and faced challenge run-in - kept on well - gamely (trainer said - regarding the apparent improvement in form - that mare won an INH Flat race at Wexford on 1/7/22 and returned to run in a hurdle race at Fairyhouse 8/10/22 where she pulled up; he added that no abnormality was found post race but she got a tendon injury after her next piece of work at home; he further added that mare returned after a lay off to race at Wexford 21/6/23 where she tracked leaders before weakening and pulling up before 2nd last hurdle; he explained that she had worked poorly recently and today's win was a surprise but felt that making her own pace in the lead without being challenged until close to the finish probably contributed to the improved performance)(tchd 50/1)
