Balthazar King (11/4) won the feature but Benny Be Good, Galaxy Rock and My Moment were non-runners. For the most part BK jumped well out in front, although he stood well back off a couple and on one occasion looked lucky to clear the obstacle. He must be considered a fortunate winner though as the 9/4 market leader Chicago Grey looked to have the race in the bag approaching the penultimate flight before unseating Paul Carberry.<br /><br />Billie Magern (11/2) isn't the biggest but he enjoyed himself up front and jumped well enough on this occasion - he won, chased home by Buck Mulligan. 2/1f Benbane Head made a howler early on and was on and off the bridle thereafter, coming home fourth. <br /><br />Toubab (5/4f) appeared to have won the novice chase but he tied up close home and was caught by 7/2 chance Lancetto who once again displayed a tendency to jump right.<br /><br />Clondaw Warrior (5/2) beat Just Tammy (40/1) a neck in the bumper with 15/8f Amber Cloud six lengths away in third.GeeDeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09834633278297488704noreply@blogger.com
