Mythical Prince foiled a gamble on Alpine Eagle (6/1 in the morning into 7/4) by a head in the Alchemy Properties Maiden Hurdle. The winner was ridden by Paul Carberry for Noel Meade. He trains the son of Alhaarth for the Wexford grouping, the Fleetwudmac Syndicate.
Meade's Rinroe (Carberry on board) was just in front when falling two out in the novice chase half-an-hour-later. This left Sizing Africa who had made the pace, jumping well, to come home the twenty seven length victor from Dancing Hero Andrew McNamara rode the 3/1 second market-choice for Henry de Bromhead and the Ann & Alan Potts Partnership.
