ASIAN Master took the open at Sunday’s Duhallow Foxhounds meeting in Kildorrery under regular partner Thomas Costello, 24-year-old son of the gelding’s handler Tony Costello.

Asian Master (5/4) made a pleasing return to points duty by finishing second to The Great Unknown at Bellharbour three weeks earlier and the nine-year-old was kept wide here as The Rebel County took the eight runners along.
