The Dessie Hughes-trained Central House provided Dessie Hughes with an across-the-card double by obliging with Ian Power in the opening Bandon Novice Hurdle at Cork yesterday.
Central House was originally scheduled to be partnered by Timmy Murphy, however the British-domiciled jockey experienced a delay when travelling to the track by train from Dublin.
Murphy though later experienced a measure of recompense by experiencing an armchair ride aboard the Liz Doyle-trained Greywell in the Mitchelstown Handicap Hurdle and the five-year-old could contest a similar event at Thurles on Thursday.
Ian Power later went on to bag a brace as Raven Rock stayed on tenaciously to deny the frontrunning I Can Imagine in the Lee Novice Hurdle and a winners of one will now feature on the Oriel Two Syndicate's itinerary.
Danny Howard was witnessed to excellent effect when forcing home On The Mend a game winner of the Fermoy Handicap Hurdle at the expense of Corskeagh Thunder and the Michael O'Brien-trained winner will now be kept to flights.
Roxelly displayed the greater resolution to collect the Cobh Mares (Pro-Am) Flat Race for her trainer/rider Sean O'Brien from Hits And Memories whilst Elbows Maguinness led inside the final one hundred yards to deny the front-running Commonchero in the Killarney (Pro-Am) Flat Race.
