There was plenty to like about the improvement offered by CHURCHTOWN GLEN last time out running the improving Rio Lobo to 3¾L in a Tramore 2m maiden hurdle when last seen in June and the Michael Winters-trained gelding can see off the challenge form the likes of Ourauldman, beaten favourite last month at Tramore, Miss Echrad and the Gordon Elliott-trained Holy Motivation who can go well at a price.
