"He must be tough to do what he did.
"He pulled so hard from the very beginning.
"I thought he couldn't keep it up but he must have a fair engine.
"He gallops and stays – he was very strong but they went no pace.
"He'll have no problem going out in trip – that'll be him for the season and he'll come back over hurdles next term," so said Willie Mullins after his Moyle Park had landed the Goffs Land Rover Bumper under his son Patrick at Punchestown.
Moyle Park had just 'toughed' it out in dogged style up the straight to beat Wrath Of Titans (his rider Jane Mangan was severely cautioned for careless riding) and Classic Move (unruly before start) by three parts of a length and the same.
The well-backed Badgerfort (25s into 9s) finished fourth.
Alan Berry had a sore back after his fall from Harvey Logan and he was taken to hospital for examination. (GC & EM)
