Walsh goes seven clear
The Dermot Weld-trained four-year-old, backed from 7/2 to 5/2, was following-up a maiden success at Kilbeggan last Friday, quickening clear impressively on the approach to the second last flight before beating Helvic Head eased down by six lengths.
“He’s a better horse than I thought,” admitted Walsh after dismounting the son of Theatrical while winning trainer Weld, speaking by phone, quipped: “Follow a winning team, myself and Ruby. He gave the horse a super ride again. He’s an improving horse. I’ll try to find another ‘novice’ for him.”
