Result
John Shinnick (3)
Mrs Lorna Fowler
Handy in 3rd early after an untidy jump - improved into 2nd 4 out - pushed forward to hit the front approaching 2 out - eased away entering the straight - clipped the last - kept finding under pressure to the line
Keith Donoghue
Gavin Cromwell
Settled just behind the pace early - slipped back to 3rd 4 out before regaining 2nd after 2 out - couldn't get on terms with winner - held that spot but unable to quicken further up the run-in
Michael Kenneally (7)
R P Cody
Settled at the rear early - clumsy at the opening fence and needed a squeeze - urged into contention over the last three furlongs - moved into third two out - unable to threaten those ahead and finished without further response
Ricky Doyle
W McCreery
Went straight to front - small stumble at the opening fence - pushed along and lost command close to two out - sank to the back before the home straight - never a threat and allowed to finish in own time
