< Tri Na Ceile made it two wins from her last two runs at Kilbeggan with a convincing victory in the Kilbeggan Irish Whiskey Mares Novice Hurdle.

Jessica Harrington's even-money favourite was held up off the early pace set by Give Her Bach but when Barry Geraghty pushed her into a share of the lead at the second last, she didn't look back.

Sent on from a long way out by Johnny Burke, the 4-11 favourite had only Rendezvous Peak for company over the last three fences, but Sandra Hughes' charge stuck to his task well to win by a length and a half.< Bright Prospect lived up to his name with a solid success in the Like Kilbeggan Races On Facebook Maiden Hurdle.

Liz Doyle's 7-2 chance was one of a quartet who broke clear on the back straight, but only had Miami Present for company at the second last.

Jumping the last as one, it was Brian O'Connell's mount who found more, running out a one-length winner.

Monsoon-like conditions descended on the track before the Joe Cooney Memorial Handicap Hurdle, making viewing difficult, but Rock On Rosie emerged out of the gloom to run out a shock 25-1 winner for trainer Adrian Joyce and jockey Shane Shortall.

Denis Hogan's Troubled Soul ran out a convincing winner of the Pig 'N' Whistle Pubs And Restaurants New York Maiden Hurdle.
