CORYMANDEL followed up on his Listowel Festival success by making virtually all to win the Wexford Handicap Chase at a wet and windy Gowran Park yesterday.

Partnered by Francis Woods, the seven year old gelding still held the initiative on the run to the last and when the chasing Brook Hill Lady and Charlie Swan crashed on landing, Harry de Bromhead's charge was left to come home, eased down, from Triptodicks.

"He has taken time to come to himself but is improving all the time. I will run him a couple of times before Christmas - before aiming him for the Thyestes Chase back here in January," said de Bromhead, after the seven length victory.

Simpany, a 14 to 1 chance trained by Con Collins, contributed to the Jackpot pool of £9,448.50 being carried forward to the same venue on October" 31st, when getting up in the last stride under John Mullins to pip Go Thunder and Fiery Guest in the Royal Oak FBS Nursery. Following an inquiry not involving the winner, the minor placings were reversed.

The winner, carrying the colours of the 30 member True Blue racing club, now heads to the Goffs Horses in Training sale tomorrow week.

The Outback Way, trained by Jimmy O'Connor, comfortably beat top weight Anabatic when recording a pillar to post success under the trainer's son, Doc, in the Carey's Cottage Handicap Chase.

O'Connor Senior said after the six year old gelding scored by six lengths: "He continues to make a liar out of me and seems to be improving all the time".

Christy Roche and Aidan O'Brien combined to take both divisions of the Waterford EBF Fillies Maiden, initiated by Orange Jasmine who made virtually all to win the opener by four lengths, eased down.

Shells Ginger annihilate the opposition in the second division.

O'Brien went one to complete a treble in the bumper, when Bessmount Leader stayed on well from the two furlong pole to win for Barry Cash.
