Intisari swooped late to keep up Ger Lyons' good run of form this season in the Fitzpatrick Gallagher McEvoy Solicitors Handicap at Leopardstown .
The John Oxx-trained Xebec looked set to score when two lengths clear about 100 yards out only to be reeled in close home by the top-weight.
Intisari (14/1) got up to win by a head under Colin Keane, with Shadagann a further length adrift in third.
Lyons said, "He's still very immature mentally, and physically is still growing. I told Colin to take your time and see what happens. I didn't expect him to win with 9st 12lb.
"The penny is taking a long time to drop, but he's a good servant and has won three now.
"I'm sure he'll have to step up into Listed races soon."
