Ellmarie Holden, daughter of well-known owner Paul Holden, trained her first winner on her fourth runner at Gowan today, landing the concluding Coral.ie Joe Bollard Memorial Bumper with Static Jack

Ridden by Pat Collins, the point-to-point winner made all for his eight and a half lengths win over Naturally Blond

Afterwards Holden, based near Ballyhale, Co. Kilkenny, stated "I just got my licence two weeks ago, and have eight horses in at the moment.

“This horse won his point-to-point impressively and was suited by the distance today."

Holden’s first runner was Swantykay, a runner-up at Clonmel on June 10.
