In depth
Verdict
Hemlock was well supported to make a successful debut at Clonmel but couldn't get close enough to mount a challenge. He'll have come on a bundle for the experience as will Da Capo Glory for last month's Tipperary run. Huntingtown was given every chance at Fairyhouse though couldn't find extra but Gordon Elliott always had one laid out for this and NONBINDING, who is related to several winners including the brilliant Ferny Hollow, will have been primed by Denise Foster. Derek O'Connor is on board Springwell Bay for Mags Mullins while Merlin Giant, a son of Camelot, is one to note in the market.
