Thats Mypresenting brought up his second career success in the extended two mile five beginners' chase at Tramore.
The nine-year-old gelding clearly enjoys racing in Co Waterford as his other victory came in a maiden hurdle at Tramore in April last year.
He was always to the fore in conjunction with Usurp but that rival was quickly pulled up injured on the bend before two out.
Thats Mypresenting looked to have the race at his mercy as he was left clear, however, the pursuers closed in approaching the penultimate fence. Burning Issues looked to be the danger but Thats Mypresenting kept finding for pressure.
Burning Issues was less than fluent at the last and jumped it left as Thats Mypresenting kept on well on the run-in to score by nine lengths under Brian O'Connell. Tiliver got up for second at 10/1, a short head in front of Burning Issues (9/1).
Trainer Shay Barry said: "He hadn't run with a long time. He doesn't take a whole lot of work and loves being fresh. I said to Brian if they were going steady to have him handy. He said they hacked along for the first circuit and that he'd want every bit of the two mile five.
"I'm delighted for his owners Joe and Hannah (Lee) who are in Portugal at the moment. I was hoping he'd finish in the money and I'm delighted he won so well.
"He is a Presenting so the quicker the better for him. He is so genuine he would go on any kind of ground, but the better ground brings out the best of him. The key to him is freshness. We'll freshen him up now and keep him on the go during the summer." Double Windsor was gambled on throughout the day from 12/1 to 4/1 before drifting out to 11/2 on the off. He could make no impression at the business end in coming home sixth.
