ONE COOL Cookie made every post a winning one under Davy Russell to land the Wilf Dooly Chase at Tramore yesterday.

Charlie Swan's eight-year-old, who has won only once since the 2007 Powers Gold Cup, was sent off the 7 to 4 favourite for the Listed contest and had all bar Knight Legend in trouble on the turn for home.

Last year's winner, who had been in second spot all the way, tried hard to put in a challenge but could not reel in One Cool Cookie and went down by a length and three-quarters.

At Fairyhouse, Kandari stepped up on his debut second to land the New Year Maiden Hurdle for the Noel Meade team.

Paul Carberry rode a typically quiet race on the 4 to 9 shot, creeping into contention three out and asserting approaching the last before running on too strongly for Gentleman Jeff for a four-length victory.

Cockleshell Road was another winner for favourite-backers in the Bobbyjo Bistro Maiden Hurdle.

Andrew McNamara sent the 5 to 4 shot to the head of affairs at the third-last and soon had only Themoonandsixpence to contend with, but Edward O'Grady's charge had most in the locker and stayed on well to win by six lengths.

Bobsthewizard (6 to 1) led rounding the home turn to take the Fairyhouse Membership 2009 Handicap Hurdle by two and a half lengths under Mark Walsh.

The jockey must have thought he was on for a double when Mr Aussie cruised up to take the lead in the Bambury Bookmakers Dunshaughlin Handicap Chase, but Mutineer (5 to 1) dug deep for Paddy Flood and beat him by five and a half lengths.

There was an exciting finish to the Bambury Bookmakers Ashbourne Handicap Hurdle, with Barry Cash getting Native Clan home by a neck.

Arthur Moore's 13 to 8 favourite looked to have the race in the bag approaching the last, but had to pull out all the stops to withstand the late charge of top-weight Farringdon.
