Stephen Gray conjured a terrific late surge from Ten To Twelve to mug Waly's Own on the line.

A close third jumping the last the mare found another gear in the closing stages to get her head in front where it mattered.

Kay Hourigan, representing her father Michael, told the stewards afterwards that the first time blinkers and the drop back in trip were factors in her improvement in form.

Waly's Own followed up his Gowran Park win with another good effort and should be capable of further success.

He hit the lead two out and had won his argument with Salt Lake before being cruelly denied.

Soleil Levant kept on behind the leaders without getting a blow in from two out.

Premier Hero took it up three out but had no more to offer from the next when headed and weakened before the last.
