Dun Masc (6/1) put in a good display of jumping to win the extended two mile five furlongs handicap at Downpatrick for Dessie Hughes and Bryan Cooper.

Cooper sent his charge into the lead four out and kept him up to his work to keep Streamtown (13/2) a length and a quarter in arrears in second. It was three and a half lengths back to Island Peak in third at 7/1.

Dessie Hughes said: “The ground made a difference to him. He jumped well.” The Corby Glenn and Good Luck Chuck were the 5/1 joint favourites. The former came home sixth and the latter unseated Tim Carroll five out.
