Jake Peter swooped inside the final furlong to claim the concluding mile-and-a-half handicap at Cork today for Pat Flynn.

Gary Halpin got a good tune from the Intikhab gelding to claim Bay Hill inside the final 100 yards and record a length-and-three-quarters success.

The 7/1 shot was following up on his similar fast finishing victory at Tramore in August.

Halpin said:- "He is a grand horse and he improved since Tramore. The ground was plenty quick enough and what the handicapper does will depend on where he goes next."
