Former County Hurdle winner Silver Jaro tried manfully to put up a fight, but a motionless Barry Geraghty flew past before the last on the even-money favourite before winning by five lengths.< Cerveza Dinero might have looked second favourite to win division one of the Mallow Maiden Hurdle, but he pulled out all the stops to land the spoils.< Warhead travelled supremely well throughout the contest and it looked a matter of how far he was going to win by when taking it up before the last.
