High Priestess toys with her Gold Cup rivals

HIGH PRIESTESS, who goes up 14lbs in future handicaps, toyed with the opposition on the way to landing the Guinness Gold Cup at Tralee yesterday.

The handicapper, in theory the best judge of all, had signposted the mare’s outstanding claims putting her by that amount, following a cracking effort behind Holy Orders at Fairyhouse on Sunday.

In doing the business in style, High Priestess was continuing the terrific run of talented claimer, Rory Cleary.
