Liz Doyle has an exciting prospect on show at the Cheltenham Festival next week and warmed up for the big meeting by landing the feature race at Naas with Rich Revival
The County Wexford handler runs the strongly fancied Le Vent D'Antan in the Champion Bumper, and will have been heartened by her success in the Woodlands Park 100 Club Leinster National Handicap Chase.
Rich Revival (7-1) joined issue two out and led at the last under Brian O'Connell before holding the renewed challenge of Murchu by three-quarters of a length. The Irish Grand National is his ultimate aim.
Owners Gigginstown House Stud also have a big week to look forward to and go to England in great heart after Dedigout took the Naas Directors Plate Novice Chase in terrific fashion.
Tony Martin's gelding (7-4 favourite) had long-time leader You Must Know Me for company in the closing stages but was always going best and forged seven and a half lengths clear under Davy Russell.
Plenty of smart sorts went for the Kingsfurze Novice Hurdle and the Listed contest was won in impressive fashion by Tim Doyle's 10-1 shot Mallowney
The seven-year-old travelled sweetly up to the leaders between the final two flights under a confident Paul Carberry and forged clear of Shrapnel to score by a length and a quarter.
Eddie Harty's mare Dressedtothenines (12-1) followed up last month's Punchestown victory by taking the Naas Supporters Handicap Hurdle, finding a nice turn of foot for Niall Madden between the last two flights to win by a length and a quarter.
Francis Flood's grey Wicklow Lad (6-1) looked as if he was about to be swamped in the straight in the Panoramic Restaurant For Mother's Day Handicap Hurdle, but he ran on resolutely for Paddy Kennedy to score by two and a half lengths.
Colin McBratney's Hidden Future (9-1) jumped past Cadspeed two out in the Smullen Transport Supporting Naas GAA Beginners Chase and was driven out by Sean Flanagan to win by four and three-quarter lengths.
