Mutakarrim outclasses his rivals

DERMOT WELD’S Mutakarrim eventually outclassed his rivals in the Millstreet Hurdle, after finding 1-3 from 4-9, at Cork yesterday.

He didn’t travel particularly well for much of the journey, but came swinging on the bridle approaching the home turn.

Barry Geraghty eased him ahead over the third last and Mutakarrim was soon in total control, crossing the line an unflattering four lengths to the good over Fiddlers Bar.
