There's nothing we all love more than taking the bookies to the cleaners, and there was a fair amount of cleaning that went on today at Punchestown.
A big concern for the bookies is a heavily backed favourite romping home to victory. This is exactly what happened when Sandor Clegane won the 4:15 hurdle and when Gaelic Warrior triumphed in the Irish Mirror Novice Hurdle.
There was some light relief when Galopin Des Champs missed out on the Gold Ciup but a late victory for A DreamTo Share in the final Grade 1 meant more pain for the money men.
