The 4/1 joint favourite (from 9/1 on the show) Time And Money won the concluding Hollywoodbets First Past The Post Promo Handicap to give his trainer Andy Oliver a double.
It was a third career win for the Epaulette gelding who came from off the pace to lead inside the final furlong.
He passed the post half a length ahead of Sam Missile (25/1) with the front-running Fallen Forest (11/1) a further head away in third place.
Conor Hoban, who had won on the 4-yaer-old over a mile at this course during the winter, did the steering.
Oliver had won the opener with The Highway Rat and both of his winners were homebred at his Honeypig Stud in Caledon in County Tyrone.
“He’s a quirky horse. He’s got plenty of ability but he just likes things to fall his way.
“Conor knows him and won on him before. The race just worked out for him. He obviously stays and gets the mile and a half.
“He likes good ground and we’ll have to see how we are with the handicapper.”
