Baily Cloud got a deserved win to his name as he made all to take the Racing Again Tomorrow Maiden Hurdle.

Placed four times last season the Mouse Morris trained five-year-old was well-beaten on his most recent outing in a Grade 2 at Fairyhouse in April.

Making his seasonal debut here he was sent off at 2/1 under Bryan Cooper.

In front throughout he was briefly joined two out by the 8/11 favourite Stuccodor

The winner was pushed along after that flight and he soon regained the lead, keeping on well under pressure on the run-in to score by four lengths. Rathmuck Native (6/1), who ran around on the approach to the last, finished second under David Mullins for Peter Fahey, while the aforementioned Stuccodor was a further four and three parts of a length back in third under Ruby Walsh for Dermot Weld.

Mouse Morris said afterwards: "He was running in good company last year and I thought he might need it and blow up today. I'd say his class got him there.

"He'll stay hurdling this year. He still has to fill out a bit, and can go chasing next season."
