After winning the previous contest aboard Time Dee Colm O'Donoghue quickly doubled-up on Light That in the vaughanshoes.ie Ladies Day Today Handicap.
O'Donoghue adopted front-running tactics on Time Dee, and he did the same on this Jessica Harrington trained victor.
Sent straight to the front, the five-year-old son of Echo Of Light was ridden with under two furlongs left to race, and he kept on well from there, going on to score by a length and three parts.
.Prince Charmin' (5/2) ran on to take second under Oisin Orr for Tony Martin, while Lord Justice (11/2) was another length back in third for Ana and Joseph O'Brien.
O'Donoghue said afterwards of the Flyers Syndicate owned gelding: "Jessie was delighted with his homework.
"He's a consistent, very genuine dual purpose horse and the lads are having good fun with him."
