Full Steam Ahead the second market choice in race two at Cork, the Family Day Out Maiden, landed the spoils in impressive style under Connor King.

David Marnane 's charge could be picked out as the likely winner of this six furlong event from some way out and he eventually crossed the line three and a half lengths in front of Forebear

Marginal favourite Belts And Braces had to make do with fourth place.

Marnane said: "He's really a good ground horse. His work at home had been very good having earlier been held up by a few niggly problems.

"We'll see what the handicapper does (currently rated 82) but hopefully he can't do too much with him as it was a weak enough race." (TW & EM)
