WILLIE Mullins and J.P. McManus have a nice prospect on their hands in Shadow Rider (2/5) who took advantage of a good opportunity in the Eden Capital Maiden Hurdle over two and a half miles.

The Mark Walsh-ridden winner lined up with a compelling piece of form which came in the shape of a Navan third to Ashdale Bob and Wide Receiver and with that race working out superbly he was always going to take a lot of beating.
