LEADING point-to-point trainer Colin Bowe enjoyed a day to remember at Fairyhouse with a big-race double through Askanna and Clondaw Kaempfer. Askanna bounced back to her best form after being pulled up on her last two outings when given an attacking ride by Andrew McNamara in the John Fowler Memorial EBF Mares Chase.

The seven-year-old (16 to 1) was sent on at halfway and made the best of her way home, staying on strongly to hold Banjaxed Girl by a length and a quarter.

Clondaw Kaempfer clawed back the lead held by the Nicky Henderson-trained favourite Snake Eyes to take the richly-endowed Tattersalls Ireland George Mernagh Memorial Sales Bumper.
