Never Shout Never justified good support and relished the testing conditions at Cork to take the Buy Tickets Online At www.corkracecourse.ie Handicap.

The Fozzy Stack-trained gelding handled soft ground when runner-up in a maiden at Tipperary recently and persistent rain turned the ground soft before this second race on the card.

The 100/30 favourite was prominent throughout and asserted from the furlong pole under Jamie Powell staying on strongly to beat Distillate by three and a quarter lengths. Cholita was a further length and a half back in third.

Powell said, “I spoke to Fozzy and to Joey Sheridan and they were keen on us going forward and not pulling out of him — just get him breathing right.

“I knew this lad would get through the ground well as he’s a big, strong horse.”
