The Tony Mullins-trained Reeking Havoc gained important brackets when swooping to land the 45-65 handicap over six furlongs at Fairyhouse.

Luke McAteer produced his mount with a strong surge towards the outer inside the final furlong.

She got on top in the closing stages to record a half length success over Guiding Star who held Tyrconnell at bay by a head for the runner-up spot.

The winner had been fourth to Calling Time at Roscommon nine days ago.

It was an important victory for owner/breeder Danny Coogan and Mullins said afterwards:-

“Danny will go breeding with her now. We'll see can we win another one but it was important to get that.

“I fancied her a lot in Roscommon. Obviously with the winner coming out and winning again last night Roscommon was a better race than I assessed.

“We heard there would be a lot of pace so from a wide draw we said we'd be busting her to get there. We took a chance and Luke gave her a lovely ride.

“We were a lot cockier going to Roscommon than we were today but it's worked out.”
