It was all change close home in the Jim and Kay Whitty Memorial Handicap Chase at Wexford as Bold Emperor emptied allowing Cushinstown Finest to get up.

This gave Jordan Gainford a double on the card as he also won race four on Dympnas Well

It was slow-motion stuff at the end of two and a half miles as the leader Bold Emperor put in a tired jump at the last and was out of gas on the run-in.

He paddled his way home but Cushinstown Finest and Bolbec tackled him on either side close home and it was the former who got up by three parts of a length at 9/1 for trainer Colin Bowe.

Runner-up Bolbec was an 11/1 chance and was a length and quarter in front of Bold Emperor (6/1).

"They went a good gallop and going to the first she was a little bit disappointed that she didn't get her own way.

"She ran a solid race in Gowran and that really stood to her today.

"She is a real stayer, but on that ground and with the stiff finish it suited her today.

"It's great for her owner Liam Carty who is a big supporter of the yard.

"I've three winners left now on my 5lb claim."
