For the second race in succession at Wexford we had a Gigginstown House Stud one two when Dinaria Des Obeaux got the better of Le Martalin
Roles were reversed from thirty five minutes earlier with Gordon Elliott and Jack Kennedy upstaging Noel Meade and Sean Flanagan on this occasion.
Meade and Flanagan had combined for a win with A Genie In A Bottle, but their favourite Le Martalin had to give best by a neck to Dinaria Des Obeaux.
"We flew around and I was going as fast as I could the whole way. She stayed going and stuck at it well," said Kennedy on the 3rd Gigginstown winner of the session, following on from High School Days and A Genie In Abottle
"She probably wants a bit further but she couldn't have done much more there now, she was very tough and kept at it.
"She jumped brilliant and has loads of scope. There is no issue with jumping anyway."
