Mohammed Al Attiyah landed the Corinthian Challenge Charity Race Series at the Curragh on the Joseph O'Brien trained Prairie Dancer.

Well into stride, the gelding sat second in the early stages, as Chloe Kirwan led the way on the Gordon Elliott runner Chortal.

As the latter came under pressure over two-furlongs out, Al Attiyah came through to take over the lead on the seven-year-old.

Solar Breeze stayed on late under Alisha McCormack to throw down a late challenge but Prairie Dancer had enough in reserve to last home.
