LEOPARDSTOWN’S meeting on Sunday did not produce any real standout performances besides those of Killultagh Vic and Ruby Walsh, but Henry Higgins was authoritative in the Coral.ie Hurdle, a race which was more slowly-run over the first two flights than the opening mares’ maiden hurdle.

The handicappers kicked on thereafter, with the result that Henry Higgins’ timefigure comes out at a respectable 134.
