Stylistic Approach popped up at 16/1 in Cork to give jockey Kevin Manning a brace on the card.

The Dawn Approach gelding grabbed the initiative a furlong and a half from home and was tough in the closing stages as he won by three parts of a lengths.

The places were occupied by Coill Na Sionainne (8/1) and No More Porter (7/2) in second and third respectively.

Una Manning, representing her father Jim Bolger, said: "If there's time, it'll be more of the same with this horse and then he'll head to the horses-in-training sales. He will get further (than today's mile) and will probably go jumping."

Stylistic Approach was victorious on his penultimate start at Gowran Park in April before coming home unplaced at Roscommon last month.
