Your Honor lays down law to the favourite

Your Honor and Chatterbox had the second divide of the Ross Road Handicap to themselves a fair way out and it was the former who got the better of the battle in Killarney.
They raced on ahead of the field a furlong and a half down and were locked together in the final furlong.
Your Honour and Mikey Sheehy took a narrow lead close home and toughed it out by a neck at 40/1 from the 3/1 favourite who had to settle for the runner-up berth. Hello Power (12/1) won the separate race for third, some four and a quarter lengths away.
"He wants soft ground and he just stays. He will be a beautiful jump horse," trainer James Nash said.
"The ground was too quick at Roscommon and I shouldn't have run him and, the last day they went no gallop and it didn't work out.
"He might have one more run on the flat, but I am looking forward to him going over hurdles. Whether or not he might need a new owner or not, I don't know as Albert (Conneally) mightn't be into jumping."
