Won by: Holloway Boy (GB) at 4/5F · then Point Lynas (IRE)

We passed. Likely winner: Jez Bomb (5/4)

Won by: Go Victor (IRE) at 28/1 · then Starsong (IRE), Battenburg Belle (IRE)

We named the winner

Class 4 · 0m6f0y · Good To Firm · 5 ran

Our bet: The Good Biscuit (6/4)

Won by: The Good Biscuit (GB) at 1/1F
