The rain came in time for Helen's Armada as she claimed the first division of the mile handicap at Gowran.

Leigh Roche got a nice run up the rail as she secured a three-parts-of-a-length victory over Like A Prayer

The Ado McGuinness-trained filly had finished mid-division when backed into favourtism at Down Royal on her last outing.

"We claimed her out of a claimer in Dundalk last winter. She's had a few problems since and soft ground is the key to her," said head lad Gary Bannon.

"We'll keep her going and she might go to England while the ground is still soft."
