This half-brother to one of the all-time greats Hurricane Fly made a very encouraging debut when third at Rathcannon to one of the autumn eyecatchers in Killaney King. Connections knew the desired progression would soon follow and went to Quakerstown where he clearly showed the improvement his debut indicated. He was unlucky to run into what would appear to be one of the leading graduates of the autumn season in Ideal Des Bordes but lost little in defeat in chasing home that winner to just under four lengths. He has finished second to a very talented €115,000 store who has a pedigree of a champion so there is no real knowing just how strong a performance this really was albeit in defeat. It is likely that many winning performances would not have required such talent and effort as this run required from this son of Walk In The Park.
