Moscow continues Magic run for Harrington Robbie McNamara teamed up with Jessica Harrington to take the bumper at Naas as Moscow Magic made virtually all in the 2m3f event. The six-year-old had a couple of outings in point-to-points but was making his debut under rules after a lengthy absence and was sent off at 12/1. McNamara’s mount was travelling well early in the straight but Patrick Mullins appeared to have him covered on Kate Appleby Shoes quarter of a mile out. However the 2/1 favourite didn’t find as much as expected when put under pressure, and Moscow Magic kept on well to score by half a length. The Noel Meade-trained newcomer Aengus was a further length and a quarter back in third. Mrs Harrington said, “That's great, I'm delighted. It's 18 months since he's run in a point-to-point and he's just had bits and pieces (of problems). “He's enormous. We've won a bumper with him now and I'd imagine he'll go jumping.” (GC & AM)
