Frozen Lake deserved a win after three second placings in his seven previous starts and it arrived for the Elusive Quality gelding in the Irish Stallion Farms E.B.F. Maiden at Fairyhouse.

Soon making the pace after breaking well, Declan McDonogh's mount was pressed in the straight but try as they might Zylan and Griko couldn't reel him in, going under by half a length and a nose.

"He's been running well and consistent, and in his only poor run a horse collided with him at Leopardstown," said successful handler John Oxx.

"He's a tough, genuine, sound horse over seven furlongs or a mile and will go for a handicap next. He's a big rangy horse who will grow into himself as the year goes on. He's not fully mature."
