Placed on his previous start at Naas and blinkered for the first time, Best Law (9/2) made all the running to land the three-year-old handicap over 1m3f.

Trained for Gaelic Thoroughbreds by Ger Lyons, the son of Aclaim strode out well on the quick ground and stayed on well under Colin Keane to beat market leader Our Lil by two lengths. 

Assistant trainer Shane Lyons said: "We were a little worried about the ground but that was nicely done. The ground is proper good to firm summer ground but has a lovely cushion of grass so is safe enough for him to run.

"It is great to get a winner for Gaelic Bloodstock which is fronted by Philip Burns in Scotland and fair play to them for being patient with this horse. Hopefully there is a couple of more races for him before he goes jumping. He is a fine big horse and jumping will be his game."
