< Along Came Casey was an impressive winner of Gowran's Next Meeting At Gowran Park October 5th & 6th Handicap.

Dermot Weld's Oratorio filly lost her way after winning a maiden at the County Kilkenny track last August but her recent fifth to Punch Your Weight in the Irish Cambridgeshire was a far more encouraging performance.

Sent off the heavily-supported 6-4 favourite in this lower grade, she was never far off the pace under Pat Smullen and simply had to be kept up to her work after hitting the front on the approach to the home turn.< Cheval Rouge and Kashmir Peak filled the places, but the winner had four and a quarter lengths to spare passing the post.< High Octane ran out a well-backed winner on his racecourse debut in the opening Irish Stallion Farms EBF (C & G) Median Auction Maiden.

John Murphy's Racing Post Trophy entrant was supported into 10-1 having been available around three times that price earlier in the day, and the Motivator colt did not disappoint.

Seamie Heffernan guided him to a length and three-quarter victory over Military Device with Miller Beach back in third.< Horizon Sky (3-1 joint-favourite) stayed on powerfully under Wayne Lordan to defy top weight in the Rooftop Restaurant At Gowran Park Nursery.

David Wachman's charge was a beaten favourite over the same course and distance last month but went one better with a two-length defeat of Ballyorban

Andrew Thornton brought Donal Kinsella's Arbitrageur (9-2) with a perfectly-timed run to break his duck at the seventh attempt in the Follow Gowran Park On Facebook Maiden.

The Kilkenny Handicap resulted in a nose victory for Red Sea Poll

Paul Deegan's 15-2 chance showed a willing attitude close home to edge out Enough Is Enough and California Rose in a three-way scramble for the line.
