Kerry National winning jockey Andrew Lynch supplemented that success with victory in the feature race at Listowel, the Ladbrokes Handicap Hurdle, on Fiery Oscar
The complexion of the race changed completely between the final two flights, with Leigh happy to bring Rodger Sweeney's charge under the stands' rail.
Finishing much the strongest, the 12-1 chance flew over the last and went on to beat Blacklough by two and three-quarter lengths.< Owega Star (11-10 favourite) ran out a game winner of the Kevin McManus Beginners Chase for Peter Fahey.
Neck and neck with Clonbanan Lad at the second last, Andrew Leigh's mount jumped the better and got home four and a quarter lengths clear.< Blackwell Synergy (10-1) landed the Devon Inn Hotel Handicap Hurdle for trainer John Supple and jockey Eddie O'Connell.
A double for owners Ballylinch Stud was completed when Sho Girl romped to victory in the Friends Of Tony Wright Memorial Handicap.
Patrick Prendergast's 25-1 chance was travelling much the best at the top of the home turn and after Declan McDonogh struck for home well over two furlongs out, she ran on well to beat Caim Hill by three and three-quarter lengths.
Ballylinch's Fulminata had earlier supplemented Monday's victory here by defying a 5lb penalty in the Speedy's Bars Moyvane & Ballylongford Handicap.
Sent off the 5-2 favourite, Jim Bolger's filly was steered to a comfortable length success by promising young claimer Killian Hennessy.
The application of a visor did the trick for Late Rosebud (9-4), with the headgear enabling Dermot Weld's filly to strike at the seventh time of asking in the Tote Jackpot Guarantee Median Auction Maiden.< Truly Delightful (12-1) had been struggling over a mile and a half but showed her appreciation for the drop to a mile by fighting off Muntasaf in the Greenville Maiden.
