PADDY POWER

Be merry by backing Derry on chase debut

- JASON HEAVEY RACING EDITOR AND CHIEF TIPSTER

ALL eyes will be on DERRYHASSEN PADDY (2.50, trb) when he makes his eagerly awaited chasing debut at Ayr this afternoon.

The six-year-old already has some experience over fences having graduated from the Irish point-to-point field and what he achieved in his first four starts for Lucinda Russell (below) suggests he has all the tools to make up into a top-class performer in this sphere.
