Diakali shows Festival style12th January 2013
Diakali enhanced his Triumph Hurdle claims with an easy victory in the Visit punchestown.com For All Our Offers Juvenile Hurdle.
The Willie Mullins-trained four-year-old (1-2 favourite) set out to make all under Paul Townend and never saw another rival in the Grade Three event.
Gordon Elliott's Flaxen Flare gave chase, but the writing was on the wall some way out and he trailed home 28 lengths adrift after Diakali opened up between the final two flights.
