Despite having won his previous start at Navan in March in decisive fashion, Satono Chevalier was allowed to go off at 25/1 for the concluding KOG Logistics Handicap at Ballinrobe and defied a huge drift in the market to follow up under Reese Holohan

Never far from the pace, the eight-year-old was produced to challenge Justenzia in the straight and forged clear to post a two-length victory.

Winning owner/trainer Michael Flannery said "There's a local man who trains near here called Michael Flannery, but I'm based in Askeaton Co Limerick.

"This was his first run for me, I bought him after his last run. We might head to Listowel with him at the end of the month. Things are going well, we bought a couple of point-to-pointers lately and hopefully we'll have a bit of luck with them.
