“Well done to our Cork customer who made it look easy with four horses winning at Cheltenham allowing them to roll in the cash. 

"We offer them huge congratulations and hope they their winnings of €24,719.25.”

Allaho was next for Rachael Blackmore and Willie Mullins at 4/1 and the brilliant Tipperary jockey completed a double on the day with the Henry de Bromhead trained Telmesomethinggirl at 13/2. The final selection that completed the massive win was Mount Ida for Jack Kennedy and Denise Foster at 9/2.
