Easy Fella completes cross-card double for de Bromhead

Easy Fella completed a cross-card double for Henry de Bromhead, as he made all in the Killarney Avenue Novice Chase.

Earlier success in the Ebor at York with Magical Zoe, de Bromhead saddled two in this six-runner affair, with Rachael Blackmore aboard the winning son of Yeats.

Third when last seen at Punchestown in June, the seven-year-old was sent off a 5/2 chance in the colours of the Four In One Syndicate.

Making a mistake four out, he was closed upon by Solitary Man (7/4f) approaching the next.

However, he travelled much better than the market leader and went on again before the last, eventually coming home four-and-three-quarters of a length clear.

Bidding to record a fifth course success, Solitary Man had to settle for second under Darragh O'Keeffe, with Magnor Glory (12/1) all of 30-lengths back in third.

STEWARDS REPORT

Rachael Blackmore, rider of Easy Fella, trained by Henry de Bromhead, reported to the Clerk of the Scales that her mount finished the race lame which resulted in her not returning to the winners enclosure.
