Five flashed past the post virtually in line in Dundalk's Crowne Plaza Race & Stay Handicap, but it was Marise who had her head down where it mattered.

The four-year-old filly wasn't winning out of turn, having hit the crossbar the last twice, and she moved to the front over a furlong out.

Donnacha O'Brien followed that success when getting Stone Mountain (5-1), trained by his father Aidan, home in the Money Back 2nd At Titanbet.co.uk Handicap.< Mr Right (4-1) shed his maiden tag in the Titanbet.co.uk Handicap, and his jockey Donagh O'Connor doubled up on Chewy Round Town in the Big Bad Bob Maiden (Div 1).

The 5-4 favourite set his own pace but looked in trouble when challenged by Charlies Missile and Love In The Sun only to pull out more to prevail by a length and three-quarters.< Party Angel didn't offer a massive amount of encouragement on her racecourse debut four weeks ago but took a big enough step forward to land the second division.

Dermot Weld's 10-1 shot slipped through along the inside halfway down the straight and held the persistent challenge of The Mouse Doctor by a head.

The 10-year-old had his enthusiasm rekindled by the headgear and stormed up the rail to score by a length and a quarter from Sharjah
