O'Brien seals an across-the-card double
Anything Will Do, right, takes over from Do Ya Feel Lucky at the last

Joseph O'Brien's Anything Will Do put in a stout staying performance to land the beginners’ chase at Killarney.
An extended two miles six furlongs was the trip and it was outsider Do Ya Feel Lucky who took them along.
She was still boxing away coming to the last, but Anything Will Do was driven up the inside to take a narrow lead jumping that obstacle.
The 15/8 favourite was driven out on the run-in to score by two and three quarter lengths from the 80/1 runner-up who put in a good shift. Stacks Mountain (13/2) finished third, beaten six and three quarter lengths by the winner.
Jockey JJ Slevin said: "It was a good start over fences, he was a decent horse over hurdles where he was rated 133 and was placed in a Graded race.
"He's not the biggest but has a good brain and has plenty scope. There wasn't a whole lot of room going down to the last, but he is a tough horse."
This gave O'Brien an across-the-card double as he won the opener in Leopardstown with newcomer Earth Strike
