Carbury handler Philip Dempsey kept his many local supporters happy at Naas when triumphing in the finale, the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares (Pro/Am) INH Flat Race, with the Finny Maguire-partnered Caravation (4/1).

The victorious Presenting mare stepped up a couple of places on the effort of her stable companion Stowaway Forever earlier, by making virtually all.

Ridden to assert a furlong and a half out, she stayed on strongly in the final furlong to beat the sweet-travelling Daylight Katie by two and three parts of a length.

"She's a full-sister to the Irish National winner Niche Market and was a very impressive point-to-point winner," said Dempsey.

 

"He gave her a lovely ride, and we said if there was nothing going on to sit in front.

 

"William Flood of Boardsmill Stud owns and bred her and he might like to go for the Listed bumper in Navan. Jumping will definitely be her game as she's a brilliant jumper."
