There was a notable triumph for the small yard of Danny O'Sullivan in the featured 100k Irish Stallion Farms EBF 'Nasrullah' Handicap as Redstone Well (7/1) made most under 7lb claimer Amy Jo Hayes.

In front after a furlong, Richard Ahern's homebred son of Cotai Glory was unpestered on the front end and had all his rivals off the bridle two furlongs out. Under a mostly hands and heels drive from Hayes, the four-year-old kept on well to score by a length from Caracci who raced in second throughout.

O’Sullivan said: “That’s my biggest win money wise. We had a Grade 2 winner over fences.

“It’s a great pot and great for the owner who bred a previous winner of this race Mosala (in 2021). Not too many have bred the winner of it twice!

“Richard (Ahern) is local to me from Castletownroche.

“Amy gave him a great ride. It’s not easy in front to get it right and in a Premier Handicap like that.

“He’s not keen but likes to get on with it. His ears are pricked, he’s not doing a stroke.

“He’ll get into the Mile now in Galway so we’ll probably go there. Galway would suit him if he gets a good draw and can be handy.”

An elated Hayes added: “It’s unbelievable. It’s my first time riding in one (Premier Handicap), never mind winning one.

“I knew he was in with a fair chance. I was just going my own pace, set it the way I wanted to go and no one caught me in the end, he just kept going.

“The last three rides I’ve had at Leopardstown have all been winners so I must love the track now!

“He’s deadly. He just powers home. There was still so much underneath me.”
