Suaimhneach came from last to first to claim the spoils in the SAP Concur Apprentice Handicap at Leopardstown for Jim Bolger and Luke McAteer.

The Vocalised filly was making her seasonal debut and received early reminders in the seven-furlong contest.

She hit top gear inside the final furlong, however, and grabbed Highly Approved in the closing stages for a half length win.

It was a second winner in 24 hours for McAteer, who has scored on Reeking Havoc for Tony Mullins at Fairyhouse last night.

The winner has run three times last season with the best of those efforts a sixth placed finish at Galway in October. She was making her handicap debut today.
