Ruby Walsh: Blood Destiny can boost Townend's title prospects
OUR DAY: Jody Townend and trainer Willie Mullins with Redemption Day after wining the Grade One Race & Stay At Punchestown Champion INH Flat Race.
Time is ticking by in the jockeys’ championship race, and scores are needed. Paul Townend would have known walking into Punchestown on Wednesday that he would have four good shots and one-half chance to narrow the gap.
On the other hand, Jack would gladly have accepted a 2-1 scoreline before the start of play because 4-0 was staring him in the face as a possibility.
