Orla Tynan partnered her second winner as Bint Majestic Roi recorded a 50/1 shock in the Christmas Party Nights At Dundalk Stadium Apprentice Handicap.

The Ghaiyyath filly was soundly beaten in five outings this year for Dermot Weld and current trainer Andy Slattery but turned that around dropping down here to a mile.

The principals were spread right across the track a furlong out and it was Bint Majestic Roi who came home best in the centre under Tynan to beat Una Matata by half a length. River Derwent made most of the running but couldn’t find any extra on the far side finishing a further two and a quarter lengths back in third.

Tynan rode her first winner aboard Solomon Coop for her grandfather Matty at Fairyhouse back in May.

Slattery said, “I'm carrying the saddle as there is three stone of lead in it!

"I was running her over the wrong trip. She was previously in Dermot Weld's.

"We just got a brainwave that we would drop her back. I worked her with Cloudseeker last Monday in the Curragh - he's going to Bahrain - and she worked savage.”
