Arthur's Baby made it three winning favourites in a row at Listowel when obliging in the first split of the mares' handicap hurdle.

The six-year-old made headway after three out and moved into contention in third rounding the home bend.

Phillip Enright sent her into a narrow lead jumping the penultimate flight but the pair were soon pressed by Amor Verdadero and Jack Kennedy.

There was little between them at the last as Arthur's Baby went through the top of it. She was driven out on the run-in, though, to come home by a length and three quarters.

Amor Verdadero took second at 18/1 from Hopefully (11/1) as the first three finished clear of the remainder.

Trainer Mark McNiff said: "She has run twice in a short period of time and even though she unseated early on her last run she still went away. I'm not sure where she'll go to be honest but she won't run too much more over hurdles."
