MANY of those present at Sunday’s Ballindenisk meeting, run by the United Hunt Club, left the Watergrasshill venue adamant that they had witnessed a future star in action. The French-bred newcomer Coqolino (3/1 - evens favourite) destroyed the opposition with his handler Eugene O’Sullivan’s daughter Maxine O’Sullivan in the second division of the four-year-old maiden.

Vintage Prosseco was the one responsible for the generous early pace as he held a clear advantage until falling at the sixth last of the 12 obstacles.
