It proved plain sailing for 2/5 shot Pink In The Park as she cantered to success in the BoyleSports Novice Hurdle at Wexford.

The Willie Mullins-trained mare opened her hurdling account at Cork last time and followed up in some style.

Kieran Callaghan tracked the front-runner Je T'ai Porte in the two-miler before letting his mount slide into the lead turning for home.

The daughter of Walk In The Park was in control going to the final flight and was always holding the late charge of Barry Lyndon to record a cosy length-and-a-quarter success.

Callaghan said: "It was very straightforward, she is a very classy mare and we thought she would do that coming here today. It was a tight enough little contest all the same, but she is a good mare and we expected her to do that, back in this company.

"There was no real big plan going out. Once Ricky (Doyle on Je T'ai Porte) wanted to go forward I was happy enough to take a lead, there was no point in the two of us going at it. Her jumping was exceptional and she was getting a length at every hurdle.

"That's my 23rd winner so I have a few more before I'm down to 5lb. I'm finished now for the break and hopefully I'll be able to pick up where I left off when we come back."
