Dermot Weld, long the master of Ballybrit, took centre stage on Tuesday evening, winning the featured Colm Quinn BMW Mile Handicap with Coeur D’or and adding Livio Milo for a double.

Coeur D’or, a lightly raced half-brother to Princess Highway, Royal Diamond and Mad About You, has been in superb form this season and again showed his rude health with a courageous response to Chris Hayes’ calls. In another pulsating finish to the feature, he came with a power-packed run down the outside to deny No More Porter by a head in front of the 13,506-strong crowd.
