Leave it to Longford

Take a chance on Willie Mullins’ Bally Longford in the Bumper at Downpatrick this afternoon.

By Mullins standards this is a modest performer, but he has plenty going for him now, not least the moderate opposition.

What can prove more important, however, is the state of the ground. It is set to ride on the good side and, as long is there is no dramatic alteration, then Bally Longford can oblige.
