< Bebhinn returned from layoff to land the Blenheim Stakes at Fairyhouse on Tuesday afternoon.

Kevin Prendergast's filly was last seen winning a Navan maiden in April and was sent off an 8-1 chance of this Listed prize on his reappearance.< Vitello set the early fractions and took the field along until just outside the final furlong when Chris Hayes' mount stormed into the lead, before holding the late charge of Juliette Fair by half a length.< Hudson's Bay (10-1) did it the hard way as he claimed a nice pot in the Christmas Parties At Fairyhouse December 19th Handicap.

Thomond O'Mara's gelding settled in the rear early doors and still had plenty to do when he was stuck on the rails two furlongs from home.

However, he really picked up for Wayne Lordan when a gap appeared and powered home for a decisive length-and-a-quarter success from Glassatura < Golden Pearl (7-1) narrowly held Clear Cut to make a winning debut in the opening Irish Stallion Farms E.B.F. Maiden.

The Mick Halford-trained Oasis Dream filly hit the front inside the final furlong and although she was put under pressure all the way to the line, she managed to hang on by a short head for Shane Foley.

Halford and Foley book-ended the card with winners as Chestnut Fire beat The Eyes Have It by three-quarters of a length in the closing Next Racing At Fairyhouse The Return Of The Jumps October 10th Maiden.< Snowy Scene pulled clear of Berlios in good style to land the Become A Member At Fairyhouse Nursery Handicap by three lengths for Joseph Murphy and Pat Smullen.

There was a blanket finish to the Your Clubs Fundraiser At Fairyhouse, Enquire Today Apprentice Handicap, in which Lily's Prince bounced back to form with a head success over Fast In The Wind while Saga Bolton stayed on best of all in the Book Your Winter Festival Tickets Online At fairyhouse.ie Claiming Race for a half-length triumph over Krissy's Kisses
