In depth
Verdict
Willie Mullins runs a pair and Patrick rides CLASSIC GETAWAY, owned by Cheveley Park Stud, who went to an astonishing £570,000 to secure him at Goffs in December after an impressive victory between the flags at Borris House though both placed horses have been well beaten under Rules subsequently. Calagogo had looked a certain future winner when twice runner-up in bumpers last autumn but failed to fire at Thurles in January and has been given a break. Bolintlea could hardly have won more easily at Ballindenisk nine days ago and is turned out quickly for her debut under Rules.
