Field follows-up on Wexford success Market's Field followed-up on a recent win over fences at Wexford, as he took the Bourbon Bar Handicap Hurdle. The Enda Bolger trained five-year-old was a surprise 14/1 victor at Bettyville, but he went off at just 7/2 this evening as he reverted back to hurdles. Settled in mid-division by Donal McInerney, the son of Stowaway took closer order on the outer from three out. He cruised through to lead after second last, and was ridden to assert on the run-in, going on to score by four lengths. Let's Twist Again made it a 1, 2 for JP McManus, as he finished second under Jody McGarvey for Joseph O'Brien at 6/1. Caerleon Kate (12/1) completed the placings, four and three parts of a length away in third under Paul Townend for Colm McBratney. Icantsay was sent off the well-backed 11/4 favourite (8s last night and from 7/2 on-course), and he finished fourth. "He's been good to me - he jumped very well the last day in Wexford," said McInerney. "He travelled well today - I thought the ground would be a bit quick for him. "He didn't seem to mind though and he travelled everywhere. I just kept a hold of him until the last. I gave him a smack then and he went on away nicely." Winning owner JP McManus was completing a double on the card. He earlier won the third race with Dundrum Lad. STEWARDS REPORT * A.W. Short, rider of Empresario trained by Matthew J.
