Stones Peaks at right time
Stones Peak flew home inside the final furlong to land the five-furlong handicap at Navan for Pat Martin. Mo Saoirse had come with a strong run to lead at the furlong pole but couldn't hold the late charge of Stones Peak.
Padraig Beggy sent his mount after that rival inside the final furlong and she got up in the closing stages for a length-and-a-quarter success.
"We've been running her over seven and she's been travelling well," said Martin afterwards.
"Last time at Down Royal she nearly got brought to a stand still when she was going well.
"We decided to drop her back in trip tonight and we probably found the worst race in Ireland!
"Three furlongs out I thought she was going to be last but Padraig said they went too fast and came back to her, which probably made her look good."
