Trainer Henry De Bromhead completed a Wexford double today, as his Kudasheva (5/1) landed the www.wexfordraces.ie Beginners Chase under stable jockey Rachael Blackmore.

A point-to-point winner on career debut in 2022, the daughter of Derby winner Pour Moi today made all and scored readily by 11 lengths from Ballywilliam Boy

De Bromhead had earlier won with the Diarmuid Moloney-partnered Freddie Robdal and following the trainer's double, Blackmore reported "Kudasheva was good, she got into a great rhythm and jumped from fence to fence. She had a run over fences under her belt and you'd be more confident coming here in a beginners with that run behind her. She improved for that latest run and it's great to get the win today.

"We couldn't have asked for more, but we probably thought she would have won before now. Hopefully now she'll keep progressing over fences. With her style of running today's trip is probably ideal for her, but options are open."
