Shesadream (9/1) turned over the 4/6 favourite Anna Bunina in the Pat O'Hare Bookmaker Mares Hurdle.

A maiden winner at Limerick last week, she went past the front-running market leader at the second-last and kept on well under Jack Kennedy to hold that one’s renewed effort on the run-in.

A length and three-quarters was the margin of victory with a further gap of fourteen lengths back to Sit Down Lucy in third.

Winning trainer Gordon Elliott said: "She doesn't do anything fancy at home but she was tough.

"It was a good performance again there today. She jumped the whole way, so we are delighted.

"She seems to like that ground, so we'll have a look at the book and see where we go.

"At the moment I think she is good enough to keep here (racing in Ireland). She's progressive."
