Bolger takes honours with Gowran double
Without a win since landing a nursery on this track in 2008, Scandal Sheet built on a solid recent run at the Curragh to justify 15/8 favouritism after a protracted duel with front-running Final Flashback, which she beat by a neck, the pair pulling seven lengths clear of the third, Big Robert.
Bolger commented: “She was a pretty good two-year-old, but lost her way last year. And she has been slow to come to hand this year. But she’s getting her act together now. We’ll see what the handicapper does, but I expect we’ll be edging towards getting some black type for her.”
