Willie Mullins' Cheltenham team clicked into gear in the second half of the meeting, and the champion trainer also struck on home soil in Wexford's Arctic Tack Stud Veterans Handicap Chase.< The Crafty Butcher was sent off favourite for Mullins, but had to settle for third as The Paparrazi Kid bounced back to form under Katie O'Farrell.
The 8-1 chance headed long-time leader Katnap approaching the last and then his stamina just about lasted out to fend off the late challenge of Lisclogher Lad by a neck.< Crosshue Boy (7-1) got the better of a tussle with Camlann for the Micheal O'Murchadha Memorial Rated Hurdle.
The pair challenged together at the penultimate flight and jumped the last disputing the lead, but it was Harley Dunne's mount who pulled out more to pass the post a length and three-quarters to the good.
Dunne was also on the mark when Vanellope took the Wexford (Pro/Am) Flat Race.< Capture The Drama continues to pay his way and registered his fourth win of the campaign in the Eoin O'Gorman Solicitors Novice Handicap Chase.
Andrew Ring was always prominent on the 4-1 shot and had a willing partner who ran right the way to the line to see off Dr Waluigi by eight lengths.< Delface took a major step forward from his previous two outings to land the Pinnacle, Tomcoole, Waters & Kelly's Farmhouse Bakery Maiden Hurdle.
Liz Doyle's 16-1 chance battled hard after the last to get the better of Leomar by a head in the hands of Brian O'Connell.
O'Connell followed up when Jefferson Davis (14-1) made a successful handicap debut in this sphere in the Barry Ennis Memorial Novice Handicap Hurdle.< Crossed My Mind (5-2) was a solid fourth behind Melon at Leopardstown and confirmed that promise by beating far less exalted company with the minimum of fuss in the Lad, Murform, McCrea & Raptic Ltd. Maiden Hurdle.
