Most Chaste delivers in style

Just one of three planned point-to-point fixtures survived the elements yesterday and that was the Island Foxhounds meeting that took place at Ballydarragh in north Co Wexford.

On an afternoon that witnessed seven races with all of the favourites getting beaten, the Andrew Latta-trained mare Most Chaste lit up the session for most by destroying the opposition in the open lightweight.

Most Chaste (6/1), the only mare amongst the nine runners, always travelled with purpose for first-time partner Derek O’Connor as Nedzer’s Return gave an exhibition of fencing in front for regular partner Annie Bowles.
