Full Moon completed a four-timer at the Curragh for Aidan & Donnacha O'Brien, as he took the concluding Kildare Under 20s "All Ireland Football Champions" Handicap.
Successful earlier with Mount Everest Ten Sovereigns and Flag Of Honour this O'Brien representative was sent off at 8/1.
Settled towards rear in the centre of the track, the bay victor made progress from the two furlong pole, and burst through to lead on the far side inside the final 100 yards, going on to score by a length.
The 4/1 favourite St Brelades Bay (backed from 11/2) dead-heated for second with 9/1 chance Stormy Belle
"He's an unbelievable worker and always was," Aidan O'Brien said.
"He came travelling there nicely and maybe the seven furlongs on nice ground made a difference.
"He had some good runs. He won nicely in the end. We could run him in a handicap on champions weekend and hopefully it would still be a nice bit of ground for him then."
