Hurricane Jojo gained a deserved success when landing the Leo McMorrow Memorial Handicap Hurdle at Sligo.

Steven Ryder 's charge had been placed on her previous four starts but made no mistake this time with a three-length success.

Matty Bowes produced the 9/2 shot to claim front-runner Cheap As Chips at the final flight and she stayed on strongly on the run-in.

It was a welcome winner for Bowes, his first since August 24th last year.

Ryder hurried off with his charge from the winners enclosure.
