64/1 double for Bolger and Harrington After the success of Fresh By Nature thirty minutes earlier, Jessica Harrington and Mark Bolger quickly doubled up as Bob Le Beau took the SHS Sales & Marketing Hurdle. Fatcatinthehat went off the 8/15 favourite (opened on-course at 4/6), for Willie Mullins and Paul Townend, with the winner going off at 4/1. A Listed winner on the level, the six-year-old victorious son of Big Bad Bob won his maiden hurdle at Ballinrobe in June, finishing a close up fifth to Que Pasa on his next start at Galway, before finding Blackmail far too good on his last start at Bellewstown. Having raced in second, he got a nice run up the rail to get on terms with Fatcatinthehat at the third last. He got to the front before two out, and he asserted on the run-in to score easily by seven and a half lengths. Fatcatinthehat went badly left approaching the third last, drifting across to the stand side, eventually finishing second, while his stablemate Moveable Asset was half a length back in third. Mark Bolger said afterwards: "That fella's a good horse on the flat. "Small fields and two miles suits him. He's tough and stays. "To be fair he's been busy over hurdles. He's a proper good ground horse and he'll be kept going." Additional reporting by Michael Graham
