Game changer as Darwins Fox makes all

Henry de Bromhead’s Darwins Fox made virtually all of the running to land the J P McManus Rated Hurdle at Cork yesterday.

Down the field in the Galway Hurdle previously, he comprehensively reversed form with the horse that finished third in that contest - The Game Changer.

Andrew Lynch soon had the winner bowling along in front and the tactics worked a treat with The Game Changer, the well-backed favourite, in trouble a fair way from home.
