One And Only came out on the right side of a photo finish to give Oliver McKiernan and Phillip Enright a win in the concluding Greenvalley Transport Novice Handicap Hurdle at Cork.

A faller on his most recent outing at Fairyhouse last month, the six-year-old made up for that lapse by opening his account at the 16th attempt.

Moving well into the straight, Enright engaged in a real duel with eventual runner-up Hesasmoothoperator from two out.

Nothing separated the pair as they flashed past the post together but One And Only just had his head down where it mattered most.

Phillip Enright reported: "At the last hurdle down the back, he just reached a bit and landed out on his nose but recovered well. He fell the last day and can land a little steep sometimes but is usually a good jumper.

"We were all out at the line so it was great we held on.

"He had been disappointing as he is a well bred horse but hopefully can now get confidence and build on this."
