Vintage Ruby Walsh to get Rare Article up to score by a head, thus achieving his 1000th winner. The mare was well-backed and showed a most willing attitude. If Lady Lenson had kept a straight line on the run-in, she'd have held on. Hot Commodity made a mistake two out and that cost her. She was still in with every chance at the time. The rest were well-beaten. Say How Phar (lame) was a non-runner.
