Hot favourite Cape Clear Island only just prevailed in a thrilling finish to the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden, kicking off the double for the O'Briens.

The 1-5 chance was driven to the front some way out, but Windsor Beach gradually closed the deficit and the pair passed the post as one, with Cape Clear Island edging the verdict by a nose.< Emerita produced a highly professional display on only her second start to land the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden.

Settled just behind favourite Tap Dancing by Pat Smullen, Dermot Weld's 2-1 chance struck for home at the two-furlong pole and came clear to score by seven lengths.

Ger Lyons' Greek Canyon (11-2) just held on to pip Kiss The Stars by a short head in the Lyrath Estate Hotel And Spa Summer Ladies Day Handicap under Colin Keane.< Teoirim made light work of the Fingal Ravens GFC Apprentice Rated Race.

Jim Bolger's 5-2 chance sprinted clear in the final furlong under Ronan Whelan, coming home three lengths clear of the running-on Gentry

Patrick Martin's Gun Shoot showed a really willing attitude to pull out all the stops for Conor Hoban and land the Follow Fairyhouse On Twitter Handicap.

The 7-1 chance was one of a trio of potential winners in the final furlong, but she stuck on well in the closing stages to beat Bwindi by half a length.
