Verdict
Five winning bumpers in the finale with Willie Mullins saddling Never Feel Blue, a debut winner at Kilbeggan before beaten when long odds-on at Punchestown when conceding a stone to the winner. Jeremys Jewel had few problems seeing off Time Gents at Wexford with the remainder a long way behind while Sadie's Pride had a bit in hand when scoring at Tramore. CARRIGMOORNA ELM showed the benefit of her opening run with an impressive all-the-way victory at Downpatrick and is taken to follow up though Fizzle Rock battled hard at Down Royal and may have to do so again.
