John Oxx took the training honours with a first-and-last-race double from two debutants, both ridden by Mick Kinane.

Beauty O'Gwaun looked potentially smart as she stamped her authority on the TRI Equestrian Sinndar EBF Maiden.

Favourite The Bull Hayes brought useful form into the race and had every chance, but got into a barging match with Smart Miler when the pressure was on in the final furlong.

Beauty O'Gwaun (12-1), a daughter of Rainbow Quest, was looking for room but once Kinane found a gap, she powered through and went clear to win by three lengths.

The well-bred three-year-old Alandi (6-4) had to work harder before pegging back Street Legal in the final 150 yards to take the TRI Equestrian Hardy Eustace EBF Maiden by a length and three-quarters.< Pollen (9-4) found Listed company too hot at Tipperary, but there was nothing to worry Tommy Stack's charge in the TRI Equestrian Alamshar EBF Fillies Maiden.

Wayne Lordan was sitting with plenty of horse under him at the two pole as the rest got to work, and he cruised into the lead before clearing away for a four-and-a-half-length victory.< Brazilian Spirit was sent off the 2-1 favourite for the TRI Equestrian Media Puzzle Nursery and looked to have the race won entering the final 100 yards, but she had to be called on for maximum effort to prevail in the end.

Chris Hayes had the Kevin Prendergast-trained filly just off the pace and produced her to challenge at the two pole, but leader Spavento rallied with such gusto that she got to within a short head at the line.

Hayes completed a double when the Jim Gorman-trained 50-1 shot Billys Dream arrived late to foil Chirkova in the TRI Equestrian Vintage Crop EBF Fillies Maiden.

Pat Smullen put another one on the scoreboard in the jockeys' title race when Gunga Din had his rivals strung out in the first division of the Jack Murphy Numbersixvalverde Handicap.

Andrew Kinsella's 8-1 shot led well over two furlongs out and only had to be nudged out to stride clear of Triple Axel by three and a half lengths.
