He has the winning habit now and Salesin could even afford to miss the start of the Crown Bar Beginners Chase (there had been one false start) and still run out a ready seven length winner under Niall 'Slippers' Madden at Wexford.

The British bred son of Lomitas jumped well and led from the fifth in an event where the first two in the market, Roseska and Rookery Rebel came to grief.

Winning trainer, Niall 'Boots' Madden said of J P McManus' seven-year-old: "That was some performance after getting left. He'll go for a novice now and he jumped brilliant today. He won't go to Galway. He goes on all ground though the chase track here isn't as slow as the flat course. He got a good ride off my son."
