Fiery Lad followed up his success over course and distance here last month and looks an improver.

He again put Fascinating Paddy (second last time) in his place and with that rival 5lb better and also taking into account the fact that the winner was ridden by a 7lb claimer last time he seems to have stepped up again on that effort.

Johnny Murtagh's charge came with a swooping run to lead at the furlong pole and he stayed on strongly to put the race to bed in good style.

Trainer Ger Lyon's believes the Mull Of Kintyre gelding "will make somebody a cracking three-year-old hurdler".

He was chased home by Le Citadel, who came through to take it up from Fascinating Paddy over a furlong out but couldn't match the run of the winner.

This was another good effort after narrowly scoring here last month and further success looks a possibility.

Fascinating Paddy (3/1 to 9/4f) was backed to reverse form with the winner but had no more to offer once headed.

Dirtybirdie, held up, worked her way into fifth a furlong out and kept on well in the closing stages while Magic Cloud also came from the back to make up some ground in the final furlong.

Quitit was withdrawn due to a stone bruise.
