Paul Gilligan, trainer of Cheltenham winner Berties Dream, was on the mark in the Under 18s Are Free Beginners Chase (div 1) at Tipperary today, with 20/1 shot Mister Bishop under Robbie McCarth.
Gilligan was absent, saddling runners at Ffos Las, but his representative Chloe Osbourne reported “Mister Bishop is a good jumper and today’s trip and ground were in his favour – he has earned his Galway ticket today!”
