Steve Capall scores

Thu 20th Nov 2008, 15:56

The Noel Meade trained Steve Capall finished with a strong late run to eventually take the concluding Liscahill Bumper at Thurles today.

The son of Dushyantor looked well held by leaders Cadspeed and Dick Naylor but finished strongly for a length and a quarter win.

Meade later reported "win or lose, the plan was to go hurdling with Steve Capall after today so today was a bonus!"

Steve Capall carries the colours of Galway based Fortysomething Syndicate, which members include one Hector O'hEochagain.
