Martin lands gamble

TONY MARTIN, arguably the trainer bookmakers fear the most, landed another gamble at Killarney last night when Millanymare took the second section of the Grand Hotel Handicap Hurdle.

Taken as high as 5-1 in the morning and from a little 7-2 to 6-4 on track, the Old Vic mare proved much too good for her rivals.

Partnered with typical confidence by Ruby Walsh, Millanymare was held up towards the back of the field for much of the journey.
