Walsh once again the hero as he works the oracle on King of Foxrock
The Noel Meade-trained favourite looked in command when sprawling badly and almost unseating Walsh at the third-last flight. Both horse and rider recovered but lost momentum and dropped back into fourth place before gradually reeling in the leaders and forging clear to score by a length and a half to the delight of favourite-backers.
Meade and Walsh provided another odds-on favourite in Rosaker in the Ladbrokes Country and Western Evening Hurdle. The eight-year-old made most of the running but lost out in the last hundred yards to stable companion More Rainbows, which got up to triumph by a neck.
