Walter keeps up Murphy's good run

Tue 24th Aug 2010, 19:57

He halved in price from a morning offer of 8/1 and the joint favourite for the Derrinstown Stud Apprentice Handicap, Walter De La Mare justified the confidence of his backers in style by coming home a length and three parts to the good under Gary Carroll.

Continuing the tremendous recent run of his trainer, John Murphy, this successful son of Barathea soon led and he kept on well up the straight to see off Apache Drums

The win of Kildare man Philip Caffrey's Walter De La Mare ensured that one lucky Jackpot investor scooped the €5,000 pool by themselves. The dividend was €3750.
