2009 Result

Darenjan winner of this race a year ago did the business again this year when running exceptionally well to hold off a chasing field. It provided trainer, 'Shark' Hanlon with his first Festival winner this year and it was well deserved after hitting the crossbar once or twice already.

Trainer, Oliver Brady who was taken into hospital yesterday will be cheered by the performance of his Saddlers Native who ran well to be second. Third home was the fast finishing Berties Dream

  • 1st Darenjan, JJ Hanlon, R Power, 7/1
  • 2nd Saddlers Native, O Brady, M Walsh 16/1
  • 3rd Berties Dream, P Gilligan, A Lynch 7/1
