Sunday's winner came in the big Group 3 at The Curragh where Falcon Eight sat 4th at halfway. The 11/4 shot was 2nd three out challenging and moving into the lead 1 1/2 from the finish. He kept on strongly going clear inside the final furlong beating Echoes In Rain by 6 1/2 lengths. In the Cork Grand National Call The Tune was 2nd, the 5/2 favourite led narrowly from 2 out and despite a slight mistake at the last he kept on well under pressure being passed on the line by Sir Bob who won by a short head. The other pick Hans Andersen was 11th in a race won by Vischio who beat Helvic Dream by 3/4 of a length.
