Pedrobob toys with his rivals

HEAVY rain overnight, and again through the morning, saw the chase track prove unraceable at the concluding stage of the Leopardstown four-day Chistmas Festival yesterday.

The programme then consisted of four contests over hurdles and a bumper, with racing put back by an hour.

Tony Mullins' Pedrobob toyed with his rivals in the Bewleys' Hotel Leeds Hurdle in the hands of Ruby Walsh, successful of course later in the day aboard Brave Inca.
