< Themoonandsixpence completed his hat-trick as he made a successful debut over fences in the Audrey McGrath Memorial Beginners Chase at Wexford.

Ridden by Ruby Walsh, a winner at Ffos Las earlier in the day, the six-year-old was always prominent and took it up going out on to the final circuit.

Willie Mullins' 8-11 favourite had his rivals in trouble by the second-last and Walsh needed only to keep him up to his work to score readily by five lengths.

Caroline Hutchinson's Oxalido pounced late to land the Three Rocks Handicap Hurdle under Andrew Lynch.

Philip Rothwell's Ard Agus Fada (8-1) led approaching the last under Shane Jac
