Recharge in charge in Guineas trial

RECHARGE foiled Intense Focus with a game win over the Dewhurst victor in the Leopardstown 2000 Guineas Trial yesterday.

The Kevin Prendergast trained colt wore down Jim Bolger’s runner in the final 100 yards after Born To Be King and Liebermann had set a steady pace.

Recharge (9-4) had to be switched to the outside by Chris Hayes to make his run and went on to score by a length from the evens favourite.
