Beach Bar brought up a 116/1 double for jockey Sean Davis when slipping the field from the front in the Killarney Avenue/Munster Joinery Handicap.

The seven-year-old gelding soon led and moved well clear. He was still clear in the final quarter of a mile and was ridden to keep up to his work in the final furlong.

The closers came off the bridle passing the two but couldn't reel in Richard O'Brien's winner. Tony The Gent the 2/1 favourite, was a never nearer runner-up beaten by two and a half lengths. He was a short head in front of Tresorier (16/1).

Sean Davis said: "I've been getting plenty of rides but slowed down a little bit on the winners.

"He's a big, strong horse and he loves to gallop and around here going the gallop I was going was sickening them (his rivals) but he was doing it within himself.

"I thought they were coming to me, I was getting tired but he stayed at it well.

"Richard (O'Brien) is doing fantastic. i think that's my fifth winner for him from not a lot of rides so it's nice to be riding for an up and coming trainer like that who is having winners. To be fair he has been very good to me and given me good rides."

Davis took the preceding race on John Oxx's Miss Zizi
