County Meath-based trainer Cian Collins landed a double at Sligo on Sunday where Danny Gilligan and Eoin Walsh rode his winners.

County Cork jockey Eoin Walsh then took the opening division of the two and a half-mile handicap hurdle with the Zoom Buddies Syndicate-owned Steps In The Sand to complete the trainer’s brace.
