EOIN McCarthy sent out Elusive Ogie to win the featured Bective Stud, Hotel & Tea Rooms Mullacurry Cup Handicap Hurdle at a truncated Bellewstown on Wednesday evening.

Sent off 8/1 under Dan King, the Denis Enright owned gelding stayed on best on the run-in to post a length success. McCarthy said: “He’s had a frustrating season. I’m delighted for the owner that he’s after getting a little bit back out of the season. Dan is just so cool. It was never happening and he was never panicking. He gave him a peach of a ride. He’ll definitely go to Listowel, I’d imagine. He has options - there’s two and a half miles, and three miles.”
