Most Gifted makes all under Heffernan

Most Gifted led home a 1, 2 for Aidan O'Brien, as she made all in the Cork Racecourse Fillies Maiden.

A good third on debut to Wisdom Mind at the Curragh last Friday, the daughter of War Front was sent off a 5/2 joint-favourite this evening.

She was ridden by Seamie Heffernan over a furlong out, and kept on well from there to score by a length and a half.

Stable mate Hence was the other joint-favourite, and she finished second under Donnacha O'Brien.

The Denise Foster trained Merited (50/1) ran a huge race on debut, keeping on well to take third, another half a length back with Killian Leonard in the saddle.

Heffernan said afterwards: "She had a lovely run last week and better ground was a help. The best horse should be in front - it's the easiest way!

!Hopefully she will step up in grade now, on better ground."

The winner holds a whole host of big race entries.
