Veteran Lord Erskine, ridden for Harry Rogers by Darragh O’Keeffe, turned back the clock when proving a shock winner of the €100,000 RYBO Handicap Hurdle in Fairyhouse.
The remarkable 12-year-old, sent off at 22-1, notched his 12th career success with a gutsy display which saw him get the better of former Group 1 winner Helvic Dream by a half-length.
