Dounikos is left in front after Al Boum Photo falls at the last© Photo Healy Racing
Dounikos took advantage of Al Boum Photo s final-fence exit to claim victory in the Grade Two McMahons Builders Providers - New Online Store Just Launched Novice Chase at Limerick.
Al Boum Photo led for a long way and was still going well enough in front when he dramatically came down in the hands of David Mullins.
Handed this golden opportunity, Andrew Ring drove the Gordon Elliott and Gigginstown House Stud second string to an unlikely success at odds of 14-1.
Stablemate Tombstone (7-2), wearing the owner's first colours, was second.
Ring said: " That's my biggest winner. I previously won a few big handicap hurdles but that is my first Graded win.
"That's my second winner for Gordon and I ride out once a week for him."
Of Dounikos, Ring added: " I had the other horse ( Al Boum Photo) covered going down to the last.
"I was flying and he was such a good leaper - he gains two or three lengths at every fence.
"He's an outsider but when you're riding for Gordon that doesn't really matter.
"He jumped and travelled like a winner everywhere and quickened down to the second-last and the last and had plenty left."
