- Walsh strikes again with Wrap

Walsh strikes again with Wrap
That's A Wrap, white face, swoops to conquer

Ruby Walsh’s run may have been halted in the fourth at Leopardstown but he was quickly back in the winners’ enclosure when That’s A Wrap gave him his fourth winner of the day in the Paddy Power ‘You Beauty’ Handicap Hurdle.
The 3/1 favourite looked to have plenty to do jumping the last but flew home on the run-in.
Tom Mullins’ charge grabbed Veinard close home to record a half length win in the colours of JP McManus.
“It was incredible and an extraordinary ride from Ruby,” said Mullins.
“I’ve seen horses coming from there before in Leopardstown but when it’s yours you’re doubting it.
“Jumping the last my heart was in my mouth. Ruby is a genius. He nearly left it too late - but he didn’t.
“He’s a right old horse. He’s a big horse and chasing will be his game. He’s progressive.
“He might come back for the Coral.ie Hurdle. JP will probably have about half the field in it!”
