2 at Galway for Mullins and Walsh Thirty five minutes on from Alelchi Inois, Devils Bride doubled up for Willie Mullins and Ruby Walsh when adding to the money earned when fourth in the Galway Plate on Wednesday, by landing the Lord Hemphill Memorial Handicap Chase. Burdened with top-weight of eleven stone ten he may have been, but Devils Bride went off the well-backed 13/8 favourite and he justified the confidence of his backers with a convincing eight length win over Draycott Place. Mullins (8th winner of the week) and in a strong position to be the leading trainer at Galway 2016 said: "Ruby really enjoys riding him and was seeing strides six or seven strides from fences. He rode both the chase winners today with such confidence, and is riding as good as ever if not better. Age is certainly not affecting him. "We will look for something over two and a half miles, and he likes good ground. Maybe if the ground is suitable he could go for the Grade 2 at Gowran Park (October 1)." (AM & EM)
