Knot On Time found plenty for pressure to land the Randox Health Maiden Hurdle in Downpatrick.
Paul Nolan ’s charge improved to lead after the fourth last and stuck to his task up the hill to score by a length and a half at 16/5. Wigglesworth (40/1) challenged him in the final furlong, but gave best in second. He was a couple of lengths in front of Call The Tune at 18/1.
Jockey Sean O’Keeffe said: “He had a bit of experience around here before, and today he jumped better and travelled well.
“He stayed going to the line well.
“He was uncomplicated today, he was well behaved and he did it well. He was picking up when the other horse came to him.”
This was Knot On Time's first career victory on his sixth start.
