< Coolfighter (14-1) gained first prize in the feature 188BET.co.uk Handicap Hurdle at Wexford, but only after the intervention of the stewards.< Flaviana stuck her neck out after the last and held the game Coolfighter by a short head, but they came too close for the stewards' liking and the positions were amended following an inquiry.
Flaviana's trainer and jockey Jessica Harrington and Robbie Power did get on the scoresheet when Bright Tomorrow justified market support in the Royal Ascot Extra Places At 188BET Maiden Hurdle.
The even-money favourite hit the front two out, with main market rival Cradle Mountain hot on his heels, but that one was slightly awkward, whereas Bright Tomorrow landing running en route to a five-and-a-half-length victory.< Red Giant was another well-backed winner, this time of the 25 Free Bet At 188BET Maiden Hurdle.
Noel Meade stepped his gelding up to three miles for his jumping debut and stamina appears to be his forte, judging by his eight-length defeat of Emma Beag as the 5-2 favourite.
The veteran Star Of Angels hadn't managed to get his head in front for more than four years, but Katie O'Farrell brought him with a well-timed challenge in the Free Spins At 188BET Casino Handicap Hurdle, and he beat Ted by four and a quarter lengths.< Queen Alphabet brought a touch of quality to the Euro 2016 Betting At 188BET Mares Beginners Chase but after travelling well in second, faded disappointingly out of the frame as the front-running My Betty (7-1) saw off all challengers, passing the post two and three-quarter lengths to the good over Isabella Liberty < Lilly The Lioness struck over timber on this card 12 months ago and returned to win over fences in the 188BET Handicap Chase.
The 7-2 favourite travelled well behind the leaders before being unleashed on the run to the last, and she proved too strong for Wither Hills
