The Killarney Oaks Hotel Handicap Chase went to Inchidaly Copper (5/1) who led after the second-last to beat A Nod To Getaway by four-and-a-half lengths and provided young amateur Luke Burke-Ott with his first success under rules.

The winning rider had won a Dromahane point-to-point on Owen O'Fynn's eight-year-old in April and his brother Andrew has partnered the son of Doyen to victory over hurdles and fences. 

The winning rider's father Alexander Ott trains Inchidaly Copper in Boherbue Co Cork and said: "We thought the ground might be a bit soft so we were hoping he would go on it, but we're near home so said we'd take our chance and were lucky.

"He seems to have matured this year and handles this ground better than he used to: as a young horse he didn't want to have any of it. I'll talk to his owner but the horse has a nice bit done and we might now keep him for next year.

"Luke's brother Andrew is riding in America at the moment and will be home soon, so he got the spin today and deserved that."
