The second split of the Powered By Bluegrass Handicap Hurdle was a thriller as Tankardstown Diva who had moved through to lead narrowly at the last, and the rallying Jacenry passed the post in unison.

The photograph showed that 4/1 chance Jacenry, sixth on handicap debut at this venue over Christmas, was up by a nose.

The Buck's Boum gelding is trained by David Harvey for Regina Cleary.

Jockey Ben Harvey, grandson of the winning trainer, said: "My lad was very tough, he put his head down and he galloped.

"I'm delighted, it is always great to get a winner for the 'home' team!

"He seemed to hit the line really well the last day and we were pretty confident coming here stepping up in trip. A bit of nicer ground helped him too.

"Hopefully he can go again, but he's a nice prospect to have.

"I probably just ended up there a little bit sooner than I would have liked. I would have liked a lead down to the last but, in fairness when the other horse came to me, he was game and he rallied really well.

"I think we will keep him at that (trip) for the minute. He's still only a five-year-old and I'd say he is still a bit weak, so hopefully he can improve with time."
