AP McCoy steered hot favourite Thomas Edison to a popular victory in the Guinness Galway Hurdle.
He galloped through the 250,000 euro contest with style, beating Fergal and the well-fancied Bayan to the post, much to the delight of owner JP McManus who said: “I’ve never won the Galway Hurdle before. It was on my to-do list so I’m delighted.”
