Drumree jockey Barry Geraghty completed a fantastic four-timer at Ascot today.

The Meath jockey recorded a treble for trainer Nicky Henderson and was also on the mark for Nicky Richards with the veteran grey stalwart Monet's Garden in the Ascot Chase.

Following the disappointing defeat of Zaynar at Kelso midweek, Geraghty struck a rich vein for trainer Henderson who also had four winners, with Geraghty on board three of them.

Geraghty was on Finian's Rainbow to win the opening novice hurdle by three lengths, Burton Point followed up in the next in a novice chase.

Sprinter Sacre took the bumper in a driving finish when Geraghty held off the challenge of Ruby Walsh who completed a double on the day.
