THE previously frustrating Delegate has turned over a new leaf in some style over the last couple of months. The improving six-year-old overcame late drama in commendable fashion to make it three wins from his last four starts in the Connolly’s Red Mills Rated Novice Hurdle.
The Gigginstown House Stud-owned gelding was sent off the 9/4 favourite to follow-up on his win here last month and he was quite at home stepping up to two and a half miles. Delegate, who lined-up here with a rating of 122, travelled strongly for Bryan Cooper and everything was going smoothly when he eased to the front early in the straight.
