OUT of luck on Await The Dawn at York on Wednesday and set for a return to the Knavesmire today, Joseph O’Brien took the riding honours at Wexford last night, recording a last-gasp double on Snap Alam and Monte Carlo.

APPRENTICE Sam James, a big-race hero in Killarney recently, took the honours in Wexford last night, completing the first double of his blossoming career on The Buck and Cristal Island, bringing his seasonal tally to seven.

TONY MARTIN, who has his team very much back on song, can provide a winning nap in the shape of Tijuana Dancer in the NIFOR 5th and 6th November Hurdle at Down Royal this evening.
