Review downpatrick 23rd Sep

There was a brace apiece at Downpatrick for Mark and Ruby Walsh as the famous horseracing name dominated proceedings at the County Down track.

Mark Walsh seized the opening Tayto Maiden Hurdle with a composed ride on Matthew Palussiere's Fine Call . For much of the two miles, Robbie Hennessy's Coliseum looked the probable winner but a superior jump at the last allowed 8-1 chance Fine Call to squeeze past and record a length-and-a-half success.
