She Is Electric made all to give County Galway trainer Norman Lee and 7lb claimer Robbie Geoghegan a memorable Listed success in the Pat Walsh Memorial Mares Hurdle on the first day of Gowran Park’s two-day weekend meeting.

The 16-1 shot denied favourite Champagne Problem the early lead, jumped fluently and, at the business end, stayed on dourly to triumph by a length and a half.
