Odds-on favourite Belisarius suffered a narrow defeat when Evason outbattled him to land the Bet Online At thetote.com Maiden.
Jim Bolger's 4-1 chance looked vulnerable when taking up the running a furlong out as Joseph O'Brien sat confidently on the market leader.
However, Evason found plenty for Kevin Manning's urgings and as the pair crossed the line together, he scored by the narrowest of margins.
O'Brien got on the scoresheet when riding his father Aidan's Beach Of Falesa to victory in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Handicap.
The 7-1 chance defied top weight in beating favourite Sli Na Fiarana by a resounding four and three-quarter lengths.< Golden Amber produced arguably the most impressive performance of the day when taking the Tote Pick Six Maiden.
Billy Lee looked to be sitting pretty as the field reached the two furlong pole and once the jockey gave the Willie McCreery-trained 15-8 favourite her office, she streaked away to beat Iveagh Gardens by four and a half lengths.
McCreery was just denied in the Tote Jackpot Races Three To Six Apprentice Handicap when his City Of Culture was reeled in by Leigh Roche on More Questions
Eddie Lynam's 8-1 chance was delievered late by Roche, who timed it just right, winning by half a length.< Cristal Fashion left the form of her first two runs firmly behind her when scoring in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction Maiden.
The 9-2 chance came wide entering the straight under Colin Keane, but always had the race in safe-keeping in the final furlong, beating Intense Debate by three lengths.< Lady Ultra (4-5 favourite) came out on top in the three-runner Irish Stallion Farms EBF Nursery Handicap, beating Meebo under Rory Cleary.< Quick Jack (7-2) got up in the dying strides under Fran Berry to reel in long-time leader Face Value in the Tote Mobile Betting Handicap.
