Brian Ellison's decision to send Topaz Mile third Baraweez into action again paid off when the four-year-old landed the feature race on the final day of the Galway Festival, the Irish Stallion Farms EBF 'Ahonoora' Handicap.
It was a personal triumph for the Yorkshire trainer as he also saddled the third home Pacific Heights with Jack's Revenge splitting them to complete a clean sweep for the British raiders.

There was a dramatic conclusion to the Martinstown Opportunity Handicap Hurdle when Lost Book made a mess of the last and got rid of her rider, allowing Jody McGarvey to drive Christy Roche's Park Ranger (12-1) to an unlikely victory by a length and three-quarters.< Blossom Gate (18-1) gave Yvonne Latta her second victory as a trainer as she romped away with the Vision Express Handicap Hurdle after jumping ahead at the second-last in the hands of Robbie Power, winning by six and a half lengths.
Ado McGuinness's Beau Satchel (11-2) got into the Galway Shopping Centre Handicap as a reserve and completed his hat-trick under Joseph O'Brien, while Robbie McNamara coasted clear on Dermot Weld's ninth winner Windsor Park (2-9 favou
