Ricky Doyle looks a name to note after the teenager partnered 8/1 chance Mini Chou to land the sprint handicap on just his second ride under rules.

The Kildare town native is yet another recruit from the pony racing circuit, winning the Dingle Derby two years ago on Loveboat Captain, and he looked the part in this 17-runner event.

The Willie McCreery-trained filly got a lovely run up the far rail over a furlong out, and stayed on well to beat Calm Bay (10/1) by a neck with Rahya Cass (10/1) just a head away in third.

McCreery said: “Ricky left school two months ago to join me, and I wanted to get him three rides so he could ride for outside yards. He gave her a lovely ride, getting a gap over a furlong out and kept his line.”
