Ran an absolute cracker in my opinion. Although the first two pulled clear, he put his head down and ran all the way to the line, showing a great deal of enthusiasm. As long as his legs are ok tomorrow, I’m sure he’ll head to Aintree. Great training performance to get him back on the track after such a long time off.
Most recent update (14/02/09) regarding Mighty Man.
HENRY DALY yesterday reported Mighty Man to be firmly on course for a return from apparently career-ending injury at Cheltenham next month after stepping up the nine-year-old’s work.
Daly left the former top stayer, who is unraced since rupturing a tendon at Punchestown in April 2007, in the Ladbrokes World Hurdle at Tuesday’s first scratchings deadline. He said: "Everything is going along with no problems. We have stepped his work up and everything feels all right but we will see.
"It’s a day-by-day job, but I am happy so far, that is the best way to put it. His mentality is very much geared to being a racehorse and therefore what he shows you on the gallops is always a great deal of enthusiasm."
I’m pretty sure he’ll run in the World Hurdle.However his main aim is the Liverpool hurdle at Aintree. If he does turn up at Cheltenham, he’ll definitely give the leading contenders a run for their money
