Never Enough Time the well-backed favourite for the opening Walk Of Shame Furlong Maiden Hurdle at Cork, delivered in convincing fashion under Alan Crowe.
'Birdy' was always looking confident in the McManus silks aboard the Tom Foley runner and once letting out 'an inch of rein,' the Oscar gelding went away up the run-in to beat Harlekin by three and a half lengths.
Foley was a happy man in the aftermath, saying: "I always wanted to run one in J P's colours and he's the first horse I've had for him. Even a runner for him would have been grand so it's even better to win.
"He's very light and not overly strong so we'll let him tell us where we're going.
"He could be kept going – it's depends on what that race took out of him." (TW & EM)
