Dwan gives Thecornerhouse a cool ride to score again Evan Dwan was seen to great effect aboard Thecornerhouse who justified favouritism in the Adare Manor Opportunity Handicap Hurdle at Down Royal. He gave the Shirocco mare a patient ride to score over a longer trip at Thurles last month and repeated the tactics here over 2m4f. The Julie Cashin-trained 100/30 chance was sent to the front between the final two flights and quickly stretched clear on the run-in to beat Perfect Arch by four and a half lengths. There was a gap of 14 lengths back to Bugscuffle in third with So Ladylike completing the places in fourth. Dwan said, "She's a good filly and she tries hard, she is progressive. The lads have a great job done with her. "She will probably go on any ground. She has a great will and always tries hard. The 7lb rise didn't stop her there anyway, so it is grand."
