We had a Wexford 1-2 in the 1.20 with Gracemount and Nerual and it was more of the same in the betdaqtips.com Handicap Chase as Flynsini (16/1) clung on from the 9/4 favourite Fitzhenry at Punchestown.

Pat Cloke trains Flynsini in Bree, and the nine-year-old was ridden by Enniscorthy native J J Slevin.

They got the upper on neighbour Paul Nolan, as Barry Geraghty couldn't quite get Fitzhenry there in time.

He wasn't helped by his jumping as he attempted to give J P McManus and Geraghty a treble on the day.

Eamonn Sinnott (owner of Flynsini) said afterwards: "He'd a good run about a month ago in Galway and we were just hoping that he'd improve and he did. Coming here you don't really know what to expect, and he stayed on well from the last.

"He'll run again in a handicap in a few weeks' time, maybe around Christmas. He likes that heavy ground."

A. McCurtin, rider of Lisclogher Lad trained by S.G.Walsh, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount stumbled independently and unseated him.

R. Loughran, rider of Golanbrook trained by Thomas Foley, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount refused the last fence.

The Stewards enquired into the fall under Rule 225 of Lisclogher Lad , ridden by A. McCurtin.

Evidence was heard from A. McCurtin who stated his mount stumbled independently and unseated him.

The Turf Club vet at the request of the Stewards examined Lisclogher Lad's shoe's and found him adequately shod and post race normal, having considered the evidence and viewed a recording of the race, the Stewards took no futher action.

C.D. Maxwell, rider of Suas Sios trained by Patrick Rooney, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount made a noise.
