Neverushacon had the upper hand on Akito when his rival crashed out at the last, and then the former raced on to a convincing success in the Book Online At Limerickraces.ie Beginners Chase.
The win of Neverushacon was bringing up a Greenmount Park double for Jessica Harrington and Robbie Power after the win of Duckweed half-an-hour earlier.
In this extended two mile one furlong event, Neverushacon (13/2), came home eight and a half lengths to the good from favourite, The Plan Man
"He had a wind operation over the winter and it was his first run back over fences at Ballinrobe," said Mrs Harrington.
"His run last weekend put him absolutely right for this. He was always travelling but he had to be foot perfect to win.
"I'll see how he comes out of this but he'll run in the next two mile novice chase. He's a very big horse and is getting stronger as he gets older."
