The Harry Kelly-trained Twiss's Hill made all for an easy success in the mares handicap hurdle at Limerick.

Sean Flanagan bounced out in front on the 3/1 shot and she kicked clear of her rivals after the third last in the 2m6f event.

The seven-year-old galloped on strongly down the straight and despite guessing a bit at the last she never looked in danger.

9/4 favourite Court Challenge came through to claim second but could only get within 13 lengths of the winner who was eased down going to the line.

Twiss's Hill was following up her success over three miles at the course last month.
