b g King's Theatre (IRE) - Tonto's Girl (IRE) (Strong Gale)
Tracked leaders in 5th, progress into 3rd 2 out, challenged straight, led narrowly last, stayed on well under pressure, just held on (trainer said, regarding the apparent improvement of form, that this lightly raced gelding had run well at Leopardstown last February and subsequently ran in an INH Flat Race at Cork on the 21st March; subsequent to the latter race the horse was found to have kickback following an endoscopic examination post-race. Regarding the gelding's most recent run the trainer expected a good performance with a possible mid -division finish but the gelding ran most disspointing for no reason. The trainer added that R Loughran, who rode the gelding on that occasion, had reported to him that that day that the gelding made a slight noise in running and therefore the gelding was fitted with a noseband today.)
