Review gowran park 3rd Oct

< Cailin Annamh (9-1) overcame a bad mid-race blunder to collect Grade Two honours in the PWC Champion Chase at Gowran Park.

Jessie Harrington's mare is far from foot-perfect and almost came down at the last with a circuit to run.

Barry Geraghty got her back on an even keel and although she jumped the final obstacle behind Alelchi Inois and Clarcam she found most for pressure and crept up the inside to deny Alelchi Inois by half a length.

Harrington's Lake Champlain the only previous NH winner heading into the Golf Membership 2016 From 600 3-Y-O Hurdle, successfully conceded weight all round.

The 11-4 favourite made his move before two out and was driven out by Mark Bolger to record a comprehensive seven-and-a-half-length defeat of Crocosmia < Misty Lady backed up her Listowel Festival success with a determined display in the Kilkenny Racing Festival Handicap Hurdle.

After heading long-time leader Buster Dan Dan at the second-last, John Cullen's mare was tackled by Willie Mullins' Escape Footwear and the well-treated Tony Martin inmate Guess Again but she wasn't for passing under Sean Flanagan and sprung a 20-1 surprise by a length and a quarter.< Best Value looked like ending a sequence of second-placings when dictating terms to suit himself in the Byrne Marquees Handicap Chase.

He was still in front jumping the last but began to tread water in the dying strides and was collared by 9-4 favourite Tulsa Jack < My Direction (8-1) made every post a winning one in the Join Gowran Park Racing Club Beginners Chase.

Brain Hayes quickened from the front nearing the end of the back straight and the move proved decisive because, as he began to tire nearing the last, he had enough in hand to repel Frontline < Fu's Island (4-1) made it second-time lucky over timber in the Rooftop Racing Packages @ Gowran Park Maiden Hurdle, while Wild Fern (16-1) took the Live Music After Racing Handicap Hurdle.
