Mojito Royale, a four-timer winner last season ? including twice here, picked up where he left off and the improving gelding is set to step up to Listed class in the future.

Johnny Murtagh tracked the leaders before throwing down his challenge in the final furlong and the son of Val Royal wore down Johnstown Lad in the closing stages to claim the spoils.

Trainer Eoin Doyle said his charge is ideally suited by an extra furlong and fast ground. He won't run on the turf until the ground dries up.

The winner could go for another handicap depending on what rise he gets while the handler reported that Murtagh thinks "he is definitely listed class."

Johnstown Lad has been consistent on the all-weather over the winter without winning and ran another good race in defeat.

He led a furlong-and-a-half out and stayed on gamely but was just out pointed by the winner close home.

Rain Rush helped cut out the pace and led into the straight. He had no more to offer after being headed but kept on well enough.

Ms Victoria was held up and worked her way into sixth over a furlong out. She kept on without looking a threat to the leaders. It was a decent return and she could come on for the run.

Grigorovitch, well beaten here last week, showed more this time. He chased the leaders but had no more to offer from over a furlong out.
