Ger Lyons' Ragga Bomb (4/6f) blasted his rivals to win the six furlong juvenile maiden in Cork.

Colin Keane shook him up to lead a furlong and a half down in this sprint and the son of Kodi Bear made the best way home in the final furlong to prevail by two lengths. Verified (80/1) finished his race well for second.

This was a second outing for Ragga Bomb who was eighth on debut in the valuable Ballyhane Stakes at Naas last month.

Assistant trainer Shane Lyons said: "Colin was delighted, but he is a weak horse so this was a bonus. We'll go back to the drawing boards at home now, but I'd say that could be it (for the year) as he will strengthen up an awful lot for next year.

"This ground helped but we were worried weakness would get the better of him. He won well there and seven (furlongs) is his trip, but it is all about next year with him.

"We have always liked him and he was bought as a foal from (trainer) Clive Cox who is a good friend of Ger's and that's a good omen."
