WILLIE Mullins and Paul Townend struck with their only runner on the card, as Cameletta Vega made a winning start over jumps, in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares’ Maiden Hurdle at Cork on Saturday.

Sent off 3/1, in the familiar colours of the Hammer & Trowel Syndicate, the six-year-old made most for a five-and-a-half-length win.
