Is it nearly over, Boland Takes time from McHale

Bettyville Park Racecourse, Wexford

Sunday 9th September, 15.55hrs

No sooner had we told you about Gareth McHale starting to reel Eanmon Boland in, when the reverse happened on SS13, Mchale taking a spin to let the gap open up again. It looks like now that the gap to make up may be too much of an ask for the young Rathcoole man. He did his best by clawing a few seconds back on the first run through Cleariestown, 28" looks a little too much to make up over 2 stages.
The rest of the top ten has held the same over this loop of stages, the only likelyhood of a change is if Liam Wall can make up the 6" difference between himself and Gabriel Martin in 7th. Is it a case of look after what you have, or can we see a charge of the brave?
We now will see if the famous large lady is clearing her throat to sing her tune, Eamon Boland's tune!!!
