A cracking renewal of what is always an informative Group 2, the market suggesting it was a match between September and Happily, but it was the apparent third string who came out on top, Magical enjoying the run of things from the front but no denying that she was the best on the day, Donnacha O'Brien not needing to pick up his stick.
