Make A Track on the right route Make A Track gave Gigginstown House Stud a quick-fire double at Punchestown when getting up to win the second race in Punchestown - the two mile six chase. Kevin Sexton had to administer a reminder to his mount after the sixth last as he raced in fourth behind Rathlin, Argocat and Baily Green. The whip was drawn again after five out as Sexton started to push Make A Track along. Rounding the home turn and the nine-year-old gelding was still off the bridle but moved into third on the outside of Rathlin and Argocat. Argocat was untidy at the penultimate fence which enabled Make A Track to get alongside him but he was still a couple of lengths off the leader Rathlin. Make A Track was less than fluent at the last but he had responded to pressure to close right up on Rathlin. On the run-in Make A Track knuckled down and overcame his rival in the last 50 yards to win by half a length at 7/2. Rathlin was a 5/2 chance. He gave Gigginstown a 1-2 in the race. Argocat, the 9/4 favourite, held every chance over the last and went for the rail on the run-in but he had to settle for third beaten two and a quarter lengths by the winner. Winning trainer Gordon Elliott said: "Kevin gave him a good ride. He'll keep going. He's in the sales in September and will mix and match it until then. "He'll definitely get an entry in the (Galway) Plate anyway. He stays going and has won two now for us so it's grand. He is what he is." Additional reporting by Gary Carson
