< Rashaan ran out a resolute winner of the ASM Chartered Accountants Race at Dundalk.

Off since beating Apple's Jade in the Grade Two WKD Hurdle at Down Royal in November, Colin Kidd's stable star was returning on the Flat with a spring campaign over obstacles in mind.

Niall McCullagh got to work on the 2-1 chance fully half a mile from home, but Rashaan has stamina in abundance and kept chipping away at Elishpour before getting the verdict by a neck.

There was drama before the start when favourite Pique Sous unshipped Pat Smullen and galloped for a good 10 minutes riderless before being caught and withdrawn.

Smullen enjoyed a more comfortable time of things when Heartful landed the Sevens Cabs & Coach Hire Fillies Maiden.

The champion jockey got her across from stall eight to race in second and after setting sail for home at the top of the straight, the result never looked in doubt as Heartful came home three and three-quarter lengths to the good over fellow 11-4 joint-favourite Teagan Angel < Fizzy Friday confirmed the promise of her debut success by following up over the same track and trip in the Horse First Supplements Race.

Andy Oliver's 11-10 favourite was always to the fore and showed an attitude that belied her inexperience to see off Alfredo Arcano by a neck.< Sebastian Bach had the best form heading into the Fyffes Maiden and landed odds of 11-10 with the minimum of fuss.

Shane B Kelly kept it simple on Michael O'Callaghan's gelding, sending him straight to the front and staying there, with the official margin over runner-up Shinko Princess at the line two and a half lengths.< Admodum (13-2) did most of his racing over middle-distances last year but relished the drop to a mile to land the Ever Kleen Contract Cleaners Handicap, while Arbourfield (9-2) came off the reserves' bench to claim top honours in the Bulmers Apprentice Handicap.

Joseph and Donnacha O'Brien won both divisions of the McGeough's Bar & Restaurant, Dundalk Handicap with Tommy Welsh and War Goddess
