Henry de Bromhead saddled the first and third in the Money Back On The BoyleSports App Chase at Wexford as favourite Paloma Blue led them home under Rachael Blackmore.

In first-time cheek-pieces stable companion Ornua ended up beaten twelve lengths overall in the bronze medal position, as the mare Western Victory gave Paloma Blue most to do.

In truth Blackmore looked to be content enough that she had matters in hand over the closing couple of fences in the straight. The Chris Jones owned victor eventually got it done by three lengths — a performance probably somewhere in line with his 149 rating.

"I'm delighted with him and it's great to see him winning again,” said de Bromhead.

“I'd say we'll head towards the Fortria now and we'll see where he goes in between. He might possibly go for the PWC Chase at Gowran in October."
