b g Beneficial - Ballinard Sarah (IRE) (Phardante)
Soon tracked leaders, on terms before 7th where slight mistake, soon headed but remained prominent, led approaching 4 out, clear approaching 2 out, stayed on well run-in, easily (trainer said, regarding the apparent improvement in form shown, that gelding missed the break last time and jumped the first two fences slowly before becoming detached and finished sore. He added the horse has been very difficult to train and has had several interrupted preparations which have necessitated long intervals between races.) (op 10/1)
