Colin Keane completed a double at Leopardstown when Toccata Blue got up late to land the Le Bruin Handicap.

Ger Lyons' 10-3 joint-favourite still had a lot to do when fellow market leader Maudlin Magdalen set sail for home, but Keane timed it right as he got up close home to win by half a length.< Ishebayorgrey continued his excellent recent form with a last-gasp win in the Racecourse Of The Year Handicap.< Zunera appeared to have stolen a march on the field a furlong out when clear in front, but Colin Keane drove Pat Martin's 3-1 winner into the lead in the dying strides to score by half a length from Zunera, who dead-heated for second with another fast finisher in Glimmer Of Peace < Minding confirmed the promise of her pedigree and her debut second at this track when landing the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden.

Aidan O'Brien's 2-5 favourite was sent to the front two furlongs out by Seamie Heffernan and soon scooted clear, eventually coming home five and a half lengths clear of The Yellow Bus < Play The Game looks a colt of some promise after scoring on his debut in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Auction Maiden.

Odds-on favourite Fisherman's Blues cut out the running and Gary Carroll was off the bridle early on the 8-1 winner, but John McConnell's charge picked up really well in the closing stages to beat Hollywood Road by a length and a quarter.< Creggs Pipes ran out a gutsy winner of the REA Grimes Fillies Maiden.

Andrew Slattery's filly was always to the fore under Declan McDonogh, and though Ibergman kept pressing the 11-2 chance all the way to the line, she was still three-quarters of a length down passing the post.< Baby Dinnis found plenty for pressure to land the 'Delorentos' Apprentice Handicap under Ross Coakley.

The 8-1 chance pulled well clear with Firecrown in the home straight, with Denis Cullen's charge proving a length too strong.
