Ana O'Brien had been on the score-sheet earlier courtesy of Jane Foley's Suburban Sky and her champion jockey brother Joseph got in on the act in the finale at Cork, the Bet Online With thetote.com Handicap, aboard Eugene O'Sullivan's Aussie Guest

This son of Aussie Rules was never far away and he went on in the closing stages to beat Papaya by five and a half lengths.

O'Sullivan remarked: "He has a bit of age on his side and he wasn't in training last year having started off in England.

"His owner, Hugh O'Driscoll moved back to Ireland and that's how I came to have the horse.

"Joseph said there's a few more in him. He'll make a nice hurdler too."

C.D. Hayes, rider of Grandma Dotty trained by C.F. Swan, reported to the Clerk of Scales that his mount never travelled throughout this race.(TW & EM)
