Keep On Track & James Carroll on their way to victory© Photo Healy Racing
Having won the previous contest with Mount Sion trainer Enda Bolger quickly doubled up, as his Keep On Track took the the Catch Me If You Can Hunters Chase under James 'Corky' Carroll.
The six-year-old son of Rudimentary won a point-to-point at Dromahane on his sixth start last November but he failed to follow up in three subsequent efforts 'between the flags'.
He was well beaten at the Punchestown Festival by stablemate Zest For Life but he ran well to finish third to Hi Vic over the course just last month.
Sent off at 11/2 this evening he jumped to the front at the second last and he kept on well from there to score by five lengths at the line. Old Supporter finished a gallant second under Niall Kelly for Peter McCreery at 14/1 while Maple Valley Gale (4/1 favourite) was a further five and a half lengths back in third under Noel McParlan for Liam Lennon.
Bill Porter, from Portstewart, Co Antrim, owns the successful chestnut and he said afterwards: "Enda likes him and he likes that faster ground. He ran well on his last course outing and Enda told the jockey to leave plenty in the tank for the end.
"I also have Drawn N Drank with Enda and I have a few with Ian Ferguson."
