Newmarket trainer George Scott made the trip across the Irish sea a worthwhile one by taking the Kellihers Toyota Kingdom Gold Cup, the most valuable race on Friday’s Flat programme in Killarney, with the classy Prydwen.

The winner, the second leg of a double for jockey Wayne Hassett, was giving weight to all of his rivals but the 107-rated six-year-old made light of the task. Winner of the valuable All-Weather Championships Marathon Handicap earlier in the year, he is all about stamina, and it showed as he took the lead over a furlong out and pulled away in great style to beat Vero Verto and Lot Of Joy.
