< Copy Print landed the feature race at Galway, the Faber Audiovisuals Handicap Hurdle.

The seven-year-old has been in really good form of late and was claiming the biggest success of his career in beating Morga by a length.

The 7-1 victor took over from leader Ballyadam Brook after the second last and although chased hard by Morga in the closing stages, always appeared to have matters in hand under Phillip Enright.< Killiney Court (9-2) took another step up the ladder when running out an impressive winner of the Sanserv Rated Novice Chase.

Henry De Bromhead's charge was making it three wins over the larger obstacles and did it with the minimum of fuss, jumping smartly throughout as he saw off Just Cause by nine lengths.

The opening Corrib Oil Maiden Hurdle saw Presenting Percy (9-4) lower the colours of hot favourite Canelie

Big things were expected of the latter, a French import making her Irish debut, but she was no match for the two length victor who could be seen travelling powerfully for much of the way before staying on strongly after the final flight.

There was an easy winner of the Renvyle House Hotel Handicap Chase as Oscar Knight (7-2 fav) cut down his rivals in fine style.

Held up way off the pace for much of the 2m2f contest, jockey Mark Walsh was still to press the button as they jumped the last but he always cut a confident figure and the pair quickly breezed past their rivals on the run in to score by one and a quarter lengths.< Potters Point (11-8 fav) dominated from the outset when he broke his duck over hurdles in the GalwayRaces.com Maiden Hurdle.

Gordon Elliott's gelding shaped really well in a couple of hurdle starts last winter and looks to be going the right away judging by this three quarter length success.< Joey Sasa (2-1) denied Elliott a double on the card when taking the concluding Pat Dillon Memorial INH Flat Race for trainer Noel Meade.
