Quai Du Roi is not the most reliable of customers but he was on a going day in the 10-furlong Cleveragh Handicap and won well under 7lb claimer Paul Townend.
Tom McCourt's six-year-old, who has refused to race a couple of times, got away in midfield and stayed there until challenging approaching the short straight.
The 6-1 shot took over rounding the bend and soon quickened away before holding off Jack Rio by two and a half lengths without being hard pressed.
There was plenty of money for Mythical Prince in the 12-furlong '7th August Ladies Day At Sligo' Handicap and supporters had no cause for alarm.
Fran Berry had the Noel Meade-trained four-year-old (3-1 favourite) handily placed throughout and there was no panic as Kahuna built up a big lead.
Mythical Prince, blinkered for the first time, was driven along to reel in the front-runner in the straight and he was well on top at the finish to score by a length and a half.
Muskatsturm (16-1) stayed on stoutly under Martin Harley to grab the Sligo Claiming Race in the shadow of the post.
Art Modern was sent off the 4-1 favourite and took over approaching the straight, but Muskatsturm followed him through and responded to his rider's urgings to get there by a neck.
It was the Shaun Harley-trained nine-year-old's first victory in getting on for six years, though he had been off the track for three and a half years during that time.
The two-mile New Ballisodare Centre Opportunity Maiden Hurdle went to the Barry Potts-trained jumps debutant Cybersnow (7-2), but it was a close-run thing.
Imaculate Rose looked to have the race in the bag when she skipped over the last, but Brian Byrnes wasn't giving up and he drove Cybersnow ahead in the last few yards for a neck victory.
