Day Seven Race One - 2.25 Result
As expected hot favourite Bobs Pride trained by Dermot Weld and ridden by Ruby Walsh won this opener in a canter. Always going well Walsh sat behind the leaders all the way round until the final fence when he just coasted up on the outside and ran away with the race.
It was the eighth winner of the Festival for Weld proving yet again that the Master of Rosewell is also the Master of Galway.
