Barry Geraghty enjoyed his afternoon in Kempton today as he booted home three winners - Desoto County (4/7f), Miss Ballantyne (13/2) and Cocktails At Dawn (5/4f).

The treble paid just shy of 26/1 and two were for Nicky Henderson (Miss Ballantyne and Cocktails At Dawn). Desoto County was a winning spare ride for Donald McCain.

Desoto County won the two mile novices hurdle by three parts of a length after a battle with 14/1 shot Tiradia.

It was the same winning margin in the three mile handicap chase where Miss Ballantyne was driven out by the jockey to account for heavily backed 5/2 favourite Brass Tax.

Cocktails At Dawn took the two mile five handicap hurdle by a comfortable three and a quarter lengths.
