Topaz powers home in Foxrock

Thu 18th Jun 2009, 18:45

Mr Topaz proved a game winner of the Foxrock Handicap at Leopardstown as he held off the challenge of Final Approach for a neck success.

Pat Smullen held his mount up early before hitting the front a furlong and a half out and he had enough left close home to repel Final Approach.

"He's a consistent tough colt and it was a fine battling performance," said winning trainer Dermot Weld.

"He was given a good drive by Pat Smullen and Galway is an option for him now.

"The horses were reproducing form from Cork when they were two-year-olds when they also finished first and second."
