However, the later found plenty under Terry Casey, battling away on the rail. until Sujet eventually got on top inside the final 100 yards to win by a neck. Colin Keane said: "I think his Galway defeat was more ground-related and Chris (Hayes, jockey then) felt it the ground was slower than described. He isn't overly big and has a real low action and prefers a nicer surface. Saying that, it is plenty safe this evening and is as slow as he'd like it. "The leader (Sunriseontheboyne) is a typical one of Michael's (Mulvany) as they are fit and hardy and don't seem to stop. "I'm sure connections will have ideas on where to go next but Champions Weekend could be a possibility." Additional reporting by Thomas Weekes.
