TOM TAAFFE’S Emotional Moment produced a smooth performance to land the Horse and Jockey Beginners ’Chase at Thurles yesterday. Clearly benefitting from his first run of the campaign at Punchestown, the six-year-old proved far too good for this opposition.

CALLING CLASSY, who gave Dungourney, Co Cork handler Denis Ahern his first success at Clonmel last Thursday, doubled that tally when landing the Adare Mares Novice Hurdle at Limerick yesterday.
