The Aidan O'Brien-trained War Front colt contested three straight Group Ones until finishing a close-up sixth in the Phoenix Sprint most recently, and showed his appreciation for this less-taxing assignment by stretching two and three-quarter lengths away from Mr Scarlet as the 8-13 favourite.

Some of the lustre from the Foran Equine Irish EBF Auction Maiden was lost when favourite Sunday Smart with withdrawn at the start, but Powersville still produced a notable performance.

The Tom Mullins-trained 4-1 chance took the lead off Stewardess inside the final furlong and saw out her race well to cross the line with a length and a quarter in hand.

There wouldn't be many with better pedigrees than Goldrush (6-1) and she started her career with a bang in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden.

The daughter of Frankel is out of five-time Group One winner Alexander Goldrun and looked the part in moving three lengths away from Wooster

Ross O'Sullivan's eight-year-old Doonard Prince proved that there is plenty of life still in him with a determined three-quarter-length defeat of Brave Display in the Sequence Events Handicap at odds of 12-1.< Lucca (7-1) collared High Expectations close home in the Like Navan On Facebook Handicap, while divisions one and two of the Gormanlough Handicap went to The Last Indian and Happy Company respectively.
