Cappa delivers in style beginning for Feane

Cappadocia (backed in from around 13/2 earlier, to a starting price of 11/4 favourite) took the www.dundalkstadium.com Handicap at his ease on debut for the Johnny Feane yard. Successful rider Ronan Whelan was winning his second race in succession having taken the previous event on Johnny Levins' Brokopondo

Having his first start since running for Seamus Fahey towards the beginning of February, Cappadocia came home a more convincing winner than his four and a quarter length verdict over Kiss The Stars would suggest.

"He won well, he won easy enough. He's a little horse, hopefully the handicapper isn't too hard on him. It's a big ask though. He should win another little race or two. We might bring him to England," suggested Feane.

"They are new owners, they have two with me. They had a fourth the other week and I'm delighted that's their first win."

Cappadocia's owner is Kirsty Hickey from Kildangan.
