Colin Keane gave Mordanmijobsworth a fine front-running ride in the concluding mile handicap at Naas.

The 11/4 joint-favourite took them along and pinched a few lengths turning for home. He was asked for an effort a furlong-and-a-half out.

Nearest pursuer Mouteab tried hard to peg back Ger Lyons' charge inside the final furlong but could only get within a length-and-a-half while One True Love also stayed on in third, half-a-length back.

The winner is now two from three here this season having finished runner-up to Rain God over course and distance a fortnight ago and scored over the same trip late last month.

Shane Lyons, representing his brother, said:- “He's a horse that's gained loads of confidence this year and loves the fast ground.

“The penny has really dropped with him and Colin is also getting a good tune out of him. Hopefully there will be more of the same.”

The other 11/4 joint-favourite, Iron Major failed to get involved in fifth.
