Bose Ikard has always been a horse for which trainer Noel Meade has had a bit of regard and the Brian Boru gelding bounced back to his best to lead home a one two for the Tu Va handler in the Roscommon GAA/Club Rossie Beginners Chase.

Davy Condon came there to take charge on the sweet-travelling Bose Ikard up the straight and he was well in command when jumping a little left at the last.

Condon could afford to take things easy up the run-in and still cross the line two lengths in front of stable companion Please Talk (Mark Walsh).

Meade, who also owns Bose Ikard, said: "He ran well enough the last day at Kilbeggan but he just kept getting into trouble around there, getting blocked off a couple of times. The horses are just firing now.

"I don't know what we'll do with him now. I always felt he wasn't a bad horse, he just wanted a trip. They (Bose Ikard and Please Talk) both ran to their marks."

Well-backed favourite Vics Canvas had to settle for fourth whilst morning market leader Our Man Zebo had to miss this event as he was coughing. (DM & EM)
