Jewel In The Sun coasted home to claim the Martinstown Opportunity Handicap Chase in the sponsor's colours.

Brian Cawley sent his mount into the lead at the third last and the Milan gelding travelled well heading for home.

Christy Roche 's charge Stonesinmypocket looked set to provide a one-two for owner JP McManus when coming through to chase the leader but crashed out at the last.

This left Jewel In The Sun (11/1) clear and the Charlie Swan-trained seven-year-old eased to a 15-length success over Muzak

The winner was making his first start since finishing completely tailed off on his handicap chase debut in heavy ground at Thurles last December.

Swan was not on hand to welcome back his winner.
