RACE SUMMARY:

Having won both outings in points, THE GALAHAD KID did well to land the odds on his bumper debut, managing to come from last in a sprint finish while still showing signs of greenness. He can build on that effort to defy a penalty, with Earcomessue feared most following her C&D third on her first bumper start. Horse Power helps to give Fergal O’Brien a strong hand in the race.
