b g Fair Mix (IRE) - Blackwater Bay (IRE) (Supreme Leader)
Patiently ridden in rear until good headway on outer approaching 2 out, travelled well to soon press leaders, led going best at last, pushed clear under hands and heels run-in (trainer said, regarding the apparent improvement in form shown, that this was his charges third run from his yard; in his first run, the gelding was unknown to him and jumped badly; in his last run at Fairyhouse, he fitted a tongue tie for the first time and expected a better run from his charge, however he stopped quickly on heavy, difficult condition; in the opinion of trainer, today's shorter distance suited his charge better) (op 20/1 tchd 18/1)
