Only three horses have won both the Galway Hurdle and Galway Plate Blancona (1925-26), Knight Errant (1957-58) and recently retired Ansar, winner of the Hurdle in 2001 and the Plate in 2004 and 2005.
Ansar became the first horse since Knight Errant in the late 1950s to win the two big jump races at the Galway Festival by adding yesterday's Hewlett-Packard Galway Plate to his Galway Hurdle win of three years ago.
Only in a deft modern touch, this time the knight errant is not a private eye who lives by his own lone code but a devoted artist and family man who betrays his deepest commitments.
