Aqwaam for my landlord Pat Kelly stepped up in trip to get off the mark under Seamie Heffernan.
Always well placed, the lightly raced grey made his decisive move once turning for home and came ahead by three parts of a length from Insane Bolt.
We’ve enjoyed success at this Festival before, both over fences and on the flat, but this was a poignant success as Pat is over this weekend and sponsors a race tomorrow in memory of his late wife. Eileen.
