Verdict

Ellis Boyd Redding, runner-up between the flags at Portrush, attempted to make all on his bumper debut at Downpatrick but couldn't cope with Meetingofthwaters, who hasn't enhanced the form. Ringsend John was beaten a long way into second at Tipperary while Emer Elysees, who was well supported for her debut at Cork, didn't get going until too late. POLLY'S FORTUNE is by Soldier Of Fortune out of a mare placed in a bumper and can make her allowance count against Shoot The Blues, from a yard with a very good strike-rate and a half-brother to a winning hurdler
