Market leaders Galakina and Newmarket Story fought out the finish of the one mile four furlong handicap at Cork with the latter gaining the spoils by half a length.
This was another race with plenty in contention as four horses formed a line two hundred yards out. Teak who finished third at 4/1 and Lilly The Lioness were then left to contest minor honours one hundred yards out as the race hotted up.
Newmarket Story was returned at 7/2 for trainer Willie Austin and jockey Shane Foley.
Galakina was sent off 3/1 favourite for Jessica Harrington and Declan McDonogh. She was gambled on from a morning price of 7/1. Coppers stayed on for fourth position for trainer Hilary McLoughlin at 10/1, backed in from a morning offer of 20/1.
