Exit Poll and EMBITTERED fought out a stirring finish at level weights in a Roscommon Grade 3 with the former just prevailing. The runner-up will be 7lb better off so should turn the tables while Bold Enough, who started a short-priced favourite on the back of a fine run at the same level at the Galway festival, weakened quickly on the run-in after challenging from two out. Hurricane Georgie and Presenting Bonnie were both well beaten while Choungaya has been well beaten in handicaps since scoring on heavy going at Fairyhouse.
