Sixpence lands odds

Sat 8th Aug 2009, 18:52

4/11 favourite Themoonandsixpence justified his short price in the FBD Insurance Hurdle at Kilbeggan but was made to work for success.

Ruby Walsh 's let his mount hit the lead five from home. He needed to get serious with the Presenting gelding in the closing stages however. Green Mile came through to chase the hotpot but couldn't peg him back, going under by a length-and-a-half to the Willie Mullins-trained winner.
