Rashaan made it two from two over flights as he took the opener at Listowel, the Kerry Group 3yo Hurdle.

The Colin Kidd trained son of Manduro sprang a 33/1 surprise when easily winning on his debut over hurdles at Roscommon last month.

Sent off the 5/4 second favourite today he hit the front after the second last and eased clear on the run-in, going on to score by seven lengths under Mikey Fogarty.

Crocosima (50/1) ran well to finish second under Sean Flanagan for Evanna McCutcheon while the 10/11 favourite Lake Champlain was a further twelve lengths back in third under Robbie Power for Jessica Harrington.

Colin Kidd said afterwards: "Mikey (Fogarty) said he was at his ease the whole way and hardly came off the bridle. He has a bit of class, is bred in the purple and could be special.

"I won't run him in a winners' of two under a ten pounds penalty so I'll wait for the Grade 3 hurdle on Hatton's Grace day (at Fairyhouse) next.

"He could be a very good horse."
