Land Force provided Aidan O'Brien with his third success of the evening, as he came home a comfortable winner of the Listed Coolmore Pride Of Dubai Tipperary Stakes.
Successful in a maiden at the Curragh in May, the son of No Nay Never since finished third in the Marble Hill Stakes and the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot.
Sent off the 8/13 favourite this evening, the bay victor raced in second under Donnacha O'Brien (completing a double).
He was pushed along to lead a furlong and a half from home, and kept on well from there to score by two lengths. Mintd (5/1) finished second under Billy Lee for Willie McCreery, while Ursa was a length and three parts back in third, with Shane Foley aboard this 12/1 chance for Ken Condon.
Aidan O'Brien said: "He had a lovely run in Ascot and the plan is to go for the six furlongs July Stakes at Newmarket next."
