< Cailin Annamh bagged her second chase win in four starts over fences when justifying odds-on favouritism in the Midlands National Ladies Day July 18th Novice Chase.

Barry Geraghty kept the Jessie Harrington-trained 4-7 chance on the heels of the leaders, but was hard at work on the turn for home as Midnight Game led, but she showed her class in the closing stages to score.< King Leon called on all his stamina reserves to land the T And V Novice Hurdle.

The Aidan O'Brien-trained 11-8 favourite was pushed hard in fourth after the fourth-last flight by Robbie Power, but he gradually reeled in Wandering Aengus between the last two hurdles before scoring by two and a half lengths.

King Leon's owner JP McManus enjoyed a double on the card when the Arthur Moore-trained Fever Pitch (12-1) landed the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Handicap Chase under Mark Walsh.< Indian Icon followed up a Killarney success with victory in the Carmel Fay Memorial Handicap Hurdle.< Vinniespride made a brave effort to make all the running and still led at the last, but Mark Enright drove the Dessie Hughes-trained 5-1 chance into the lead close home to score by a length and three-quarters.

Christy Roche's Dancing Roe ran out a convincing winner of the Martinstown Opportunity Maiden Hurdle.

Ben Dalton was happy to stride on in front well before the third last, and the pair never looked back, the 15-8 favourite waltzing to a 24 length victory over Bawntameena < Brian's Express battled gamely to land the Easyfix Rubber Products Maiden Hurdle under Robbie Moran.

The 20-1 chance had only a narrow advantage over Bashful Beauty at the second last, but try as the runner-up might, she could not reel in the winner, who prevailed by a diminishing half-length.

Shark Hanlon 's Down Time (12-1) took the Hurley Family Handicap Hurdle under Brian Hayes.
