No stopping Slevin as he doubles-up on Ocean After a week to remember at the Punchestown Festival, JJ Slevin continued his rich vein of form, completing a double aboard Ocean Legacy in the Horatio Group Handicap Chase. Successful at Wexford on her penultimate start, the Dermot McLoughlin trained six-year-old fell at the last when beaten on her most recent outing at Tramore. Available at 16/1 in early shows for this near three mile contest, the Kalanisi bay came in for market-support, eventually going off an 8/1 chance in the colours of owner David Eiffe. Never too far from the pace and pushed along in fifth away from three out, she jumped the next in a close third. A foot perfect leap at the last saw her land in front and she kept on well when ridden on the run-in, coming home four lengths to the good. Sent off the 7/2 favourite, Walking The Walk finished second under Danny Gilligan for Gordon Elliott, while Earths Furies (4/1) was another six-and-a-half lengths back in third. Slevin earlier took the opener on Ottizzini, while he had four winners at the Punchestown Festival, winning the Gold Cup aboard Fastorslow. STEWARDS REPORT * At the request of the Raceday Stewards, Mr O. McGill, rider of Cave Court, trained by Noel C. Kelly, reported to the Stewards' Secretaries that his mount never travelled.
