The Jim Bolger-trained Dancila proved too hot to handle for his rivals as he made all to land the concluding maiden on the card at Down Royal.

Kevin Manning had been out of luck when Manu Et Corde finished third after being hampered in the featured Ulster Derby.

Over the same extended mile-and-a-half trip there were no worries this time as 13/8 shot Dancila also employed front-running tactics.

The Teofilo gelding picked up well when asked to go about his business over a furlong out, going on to record a four-and-a-half length win over Scenic Look

Una Manning said afterwards:- "He was strong at the finish and he did it well. He's going the right way and we are delighted with him."
