< Rogue Angel prevailed in a dramatic finish to the Guinness Kerry National Handicap Chase at Listowel.
The decision to turn the seven-year-old out quickly following his runner-up effort at this venue on Sunday proved an inspired one, and it provided Mouse Morris with his first training success in the Harvest Festival feature.
The 8-1 shot looked a spent force on the run to the final fence, as first stablemate Rule The World and then Willie Mullins' Urano came to take over at the head of affairs.
Morris' charge refused to give in, however, and with the line looming and Urano idling, he rallied to regain the advantage for a last-gasp short-head success.
Veteran rider David Casey signed off in perfect style aboard Mullins' exciting novice Long Dog in the Ballygarry House Hotel Novice Hurdle, with the market leader never really looking troubled on his way to justifying odds of 1-6.
Irish 1,000 Guineas third Devonshire recorded an overdue success when thrashing her rivals in the Listed Edmund & Josie Whelan Memorial Listowel Stakes.
The daughter of Fast Company was well backed (2-1 favourite) and well positioned in the slipstream of the early pacesetter Queen Of Alba and as the field turned for home, she was booted into an unassailable lead by Billy Lee, with Alive Alive Oh trailing four and a half lengths in her wake in second spot.< Pinwood (8-1) ran out a taking two-length winner on his debut in the Exchange Inn Ballybunion & Kevin Broderick's Bar Listowel Median Auction Maiden, and Dew Line (8-1) broke a frustrating sequence of near-misses when landing the Listowel Arms Handicap by a length and a quarter.
The Seamus Mulvaney Handicap went the way of Sr Cartage (11-2), who made every yard under Kevin Manning, while Tully East (4-6 favourite) dismissed his rivals when opening his account over timber in the M.S.D Animal Health Maiden Hurdle.
