Day two of the Ballabuidhe festival featured the Murphys/Western Beverages Grand Prix final, with six runners who qualified from Sunday’s heats.

Ringo Star beats off opposition in final

Mr Security and Llywns Allstar set the early pace, with Ringo Star content to sit in mid-division. As with the previous day in the heat, Meadowbranh Demon gave a 50 yard handicap. With six furlongs to go Ringo Star was sent to the front by Ciaran Brickley, but Llywns Allstar was not giving in and turning for home it was anyone’s race. All the while Meadowbranch Demon was making up ground but just failed to reel in Ringo Star, who held on by a short head.

This son of Timon del Sol and Southlands Swift is home-bred by the Brickley family from Baltimore.
