One Last Tango was a decisive winner of the rated novice hurdle in Wexford for Eoin Griffin and Mark Walsh.

The 2/1 favourite came through to lead two out from Rodney Bay and readily asserted on the bridle at the final flight.

He jumped it well and drew right away without any questions having to be asked. The son of Ocovango passed the post four lengths clear of Rodney Bay (6/1).

Trainer Eoin Griffin, saddling his second winner in two days at Wexford, said: "This is becoming my favourite track!

"It was great for him to back up his last win. It took a long time for the penny to drop with him over hurdles. He jumped much better today even than what he did the last day.

"He is improving the whole time and I'll talk to Frank (Berry) now about what we will do. I'd say he will have an easy week or two now and maybe go to Leopardstown at Christmas. There is a couple of novice handicaps there and he might slot into one of them."

One Last Tango won a handicap hurdle at Punchestown earlier in the month.
