12:25 Carlisle- Fia Fuinidh Class-4 Novices' Handicap Chase over distance just short of 2m on soft ground. Still a maiden over fences but form indicates the Flemensfirth gelding has a reasonable chance to gain a first success in a chase. Wears tongue-strap as in previous runs. Sean Quinlan rides for the nearby stable of Martin Todhunter. 3/1 best price in many places at time of writing, on the ATR site.

Looked-up Fia Fuinidh, and, as our Irish-speaking guys on the forum will tell you, it means Ash Deer. Indeed an interesting breed. Among a few odd things about this animal, it grows new antlers regularly apparently, etc., etc.
Afraid Fia Fuinidh (alias Ash Deer) ran poorly after a dreadful mistake early-on, at which the jockey did well to stay on board.
